Room serviceable and reasonably clean. Staff perfunctory. This is a good location for me and compared to others in the area that are probably nicer but a lot more expensive, it is a good deal for me. The linens and towels were good. No coffee. That kitchenette they show is the deluxe room Other rooms have a small fridge and a microwave. Nice little table in the room.

No breakfast. No daily maid service. They will bring more towels if you ask and you put the old ones outside the room. If you want trash picked up put it outside the room. There was a refrigerator and microwave in the room. Desk staff provided a coffee maker upon request. Reasonable motel, comfortable enough. Excellent location.

This is a budget motel best suited for fishermen who just want a clean quiet room to sleep in. That's all I wanted, and that's all I paid for.
It's an older motel but not bad. Room was clean & had a fridge with decent freezer and microwave. Nothing fancy but a good place to sleep for the night.

Id stay here again for this price. Small town 2 story concrete motel . Nothing fancy and has what you need . A roof over your head, a bed and a clean bathroom. Check in was easy staff was kind. For a room that cost less than $80 it was worth it for a biker like me who’s passing through on a cold/rainy night so i dont have to set up my tent somewhere. Dont expect no frills its a $80 room. Id recommend a rainy stop to any scooter kat passing through looking for a bed.

Room was clean and comfortable. Thought there could have been a little more lightning to cover parking areas
Very good besides reserving a two bed room and getting a bed and a a sofa bed.

Good for the price
Room was clean, a bit dated, but it was ok. Staff is friendly and helpful. It's the only affordable hotel in the area and I visit there quite often so I'll be staying there again soon.
The property and rooms were very clean; however, there were guests that did recreational marijuana across the hallway which made my experience less than pleasant.
The Oakridge is an older, refurbished hotel. It is clean and basic. It was all we were looking for, as we were out and about all the time. There is coffee in the lobby. No makers in the room, but had a microwave and fridge. We didn't mind.
Would stay again for sure. Stayed x2 nights.

Clean, but no coffee maker in the room :(
It was clean and fairly quiet. It had a microwave and a mini fridge, but I wish they had a coffee maker. They have a coffee pot in the office but I had to ask them to make a pot last time I was there. I noticed there wasn't any made this time as well so just waited until we went to breakfast to get my coffee.
Parking fine. Quite old but clean bathroom and bed. Refrigerator freezer desperately needed defrosting.
No ice machine. OK for an overnight stay at a reasonable rate.
