It's a good location near Walmart, gas stations, restaurants, etc. Good highway access and descent quality for the price! New management has been a plus in making the motel better
Stayed for one night. Hotel is ok if you just need a place to sleep. Otherwise do not recommend. Ice machines also didn’t work. Stayed in the non smoking room but you can smell smoke in the hall way.
Had to change rooms three times within one hour. Dogs were barking most of the night.

Its was ok. Only paid 50 a night
Hotel was cheap. Just needed a place to sleep. Comfortable bed and clean. No fridge or microwave in room. Ice maker didn't work. Had a couple of big dogs on the same floor that barked all night long.
The room itself was better than I expected honestly. It really wasn’t bad, especially for the price that I booked. However, the floor on one side of the bed was sticky. Early in the morning, I hear a woman making loud noises which sounded to me like a person strung out on drugs right outside of my window… Again, for the price the rooms are very decent and the staff was as normal.
