The staff were very friendly and helpful! Unfortunately I found a large leggy bug in my room along with some dead ones and a few flies. The bed was semi-comfortable and the walls are thin. Ive stayed in better for cheaper. I wish I could say I will stay again, but I most likely won’t. But again, the staff was great!

Came in the facility and was greeted nicely. Must of had a trainee taking my information. It was very slow and hard to understand the person in charge. Went to our room and couldn’t get in so the office person came and helped. Directions were that the light would turn green after reading the chip on the card but always stayed red.

This motel was aging but good enough for what we wanted, and the price was good enough. Breakfast was free, although the waffle batter was running out both mornings, even though we were early the 2nd AM. A decent quiet place to stay with friendly owners and a very convenient location.

Nice simple, pet-friendly, affordable hotel. Clean room, nice memory foam mattress. We were next door to some long term contract workers who were enjoying their one night off, but they were quiet by 10:30 and we slept well. Breakfast needs some help

We had trouble with the card entering the room every time, when we were ready to leave the card didn't work at all. Had to get 2 different people to help from the desk to get our door open. The room could of been swept better. I wouldn't stay here again, members of the family were in a different part of the hotel and it was better.
