Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
It was wonderful if you’re looking for a budget motel with mice and a room that smells like pet urine , this is your place. Your ambience will include patched walls and ceiling and a nice finish of torn carpet. To be fair, we asked if they were pet friendly and they did accommodate us. The staff was apologetic and very helpful, I don’t think there any other options in this area, so it is what it is.

An older facility that, in my view, was definitely showing its age. Should have confirmed that I was booking a non-smoking room but didn’t. End up with cigarette smell and cigarette burns on the furniture. Was late and the staff member that checked me in was having a bit of a hard time. Was a room for the night at a good price on my WV trout fishing safari.
