Meh

It’s a safe place to lay your head if you can tolerate the wife if she’s working the desk. She is beyond rude and it’s something much more than a bad day. The rooms are okay and I am a local that will stay twice a month and be sure to bring an extra towel because the shower curtains do not keep water from getting the floor wet.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The personnel was rude and reluctant to offer customer service. They did not have housekeeping when I arrived at 7:30 pm. Two of the three pillows in the bed were very dirty and they refuse to give more pillows even though the place was bearly occupied. I asked them to change them for some in another room and they refused. I asked to cancel my reservation and they said they would not refund the money. My wife and I ended up at Walmart buying pillows that night to be able to sleep. I would not recommend this place to anybody.

Great little place

I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by this motel. Its always hard to judge from onlune pictures and reviewss but i wholeheartedly recommend giving this one a try. I must mention that it is definitely a no frills motel, so keep that in mind. First check-in went quickly and easily. They do require a small deposit for non-smoking rooms - honestly people, quit lighting up in them or get a smoking room, or go outside; these might not be required if you did. The clerk was pleasant and explained everything clearly and well. The room itself was on the second floor, up a narrow flight of metal stairs. When my wife and i entered we noticed it had a pleasant aroma, was spacious, and clean. No complaints there. The bed was comfortable and clean, although the comforter and decorative throw had a couple of burn marks, probably from being used in a smoking room, but was otherwise ready for a good night's sleep. The bathroom area was small, but the shower water was hot, and had good pressure. The fridge and microwave were clean and worked well. The fridge was super cold by the way, so bonus! All in all fornan inexpensive weekend getaway this motel is perfect. Just dont expect premium amenities.

Walked in to check in, lady at desk started to yell at me because im cheap, didnt pay enough for my room. I dont have any thing to do with the price, i got the price that expedia gave me. Got to the room and there were ticks in the bed. So the guy at the desk moved our room Had to put a $50 smoking deposit for the room When i checked out and wanted my $50 back, at 7;30 am the lady at the desk was very rude again. We didnt smoke in the room. Most things were good, room was nice. Just a rude lady at the desk.

They made me pay extra to get into my room. The tv didnt work and there were bugs on the floor. They wouldn't answer the door when I tried to come ask for another room so I just left and didn't get a refund.

Had to leave a $50 deposit for a non-smoking room. I’ll get that back when I check out and the room is checked to make sure we didn’t smoke. Had to pay a dollar for the key card. There were no towels or a tv remote. No place to hang up a jacket. There was a dirty piece of a black stocking on the floor. When I called about the towels and the remote , I also asked for extra pillows. No extra pillows unless I pay a $5 fee. The towels and the tv remote were brought quickly to the room. And the stocking I pointed out was removed. I understand that the room was very reasonably priced, but standards, not so great.

Be Cautious

Booked the room for a King Bed Smoking. They didnt have one available then they upcharged me to a Double Room Smoking. The room they gave me had been broken into and the door didnt work properly. There was broken tile in the bathroom area. The family that runs and lives in the hotel was very rude.
