Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The motel was really nice. The staff was outstanding. The breakfast was pretty good, the gym was adequate. The only problem was the Vehicle noise was very excessive up until about 11:30 to midnight. But that is no way of reflection upon the staff or the motel itself!

The cleanliness, staff, and convenience were all great, but it was too noisy. If you’re looking for a quiet place, I’d recommend choosing somewhere else. It was so loud all night that I couldn’t sleep.

Staff was very friendly and helpful. Room was clean. Beds were super comfortable! Only slate downside is the bathroom door slams really easy and it’s really loud so if you get up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom, you have to be careful when closing the door or you’ll wake everybody else up in the room
