Staff is awesome 👏. Very pleasant and helpful! Midway Cafe is better than a typical hotel do it yourself breakfast. Rooms small, bathrooms small, but bed comfortable and heater very good. Bathroom has been updated to new style (rainfall shower head). Great spot for short stay bargain, perfect for one person👍😉

Pleasantly surprised

Leary about being a Howard Johnson but it was very clean with great mattress. Rooms updated and as nice or better than the better chain hotel names. Host was delightful and incl a full order breakfast. Give them a try.

The service was really bad. No house keeping unless you asked, hardy no towels and wash cloths. Advertised a breakfast, there was none. Won't stay at that one again.

I will stay at a different motel next time

The mattress was bent and wasn't very comfortable to sleep on. The heater wasn't working properly. It blew some warm air that helped a little
