Every time I have the state of this property, the management has been accessible and friendly! Very easy check in process. And the room has always been clean and comfortable!

Old seedy motel, good management

It's clear this is an old motel, not built very well. The rooms are large and the TV is good, but the motel has seen better days and the walls are paper thin. My neighbor played his TV until midnight and I could every word being said. On the plus side, the current owner is working hard to make the motel as good as possible, given what he has to work with.

Ride Central

The hotel was clean and efficient. The hot water at the bathroom sink was slow to warm up, really only made it to luke warm. The shower, however, was nice and hot! The noise from the street, supposed to be expected. The room heater worked well. The managers addressed some shenanigans with other us quickly on Saturday night. I hosted a group ride with start and end location at the hotel. The managers did not give a fuss with the riders coming in late evening.

A cozy little place to stay

While it’s no Embassy Suites. This motel is much better than I expected for the price and reviews of other motels in the area. My girlfriend and I spent a couple of nights here to relax and refresh. There were no vagrants on the property. The staff were courteous and welcoming. Upon check in you’ll get the TV remote with your room key that they ask you to return upon checkout. The property is well lit, well kept, clean, safe and quiet. The room was also clean and comfortable. I had a mini fridge, microwave, king size bed, full shower and tv in my room. I travel with my own pillows, towels,blankets and toiletries. Our view was a beautiful rose garden which my girl loved! There are numerous restaurants within walking distance. Grocery stores, CVS and laundromat are down the street. I highly recommend staying here and I look forward in coming back in the future.

I stayed here for two nights for a bike use in the area. There was plenty of parking and I was able to get a spot close to my room. The room was clean, but I wish there had been a warmer blanket on the bed as it was a little cold. The heater worked well, but is noisy. Overall, it was a good place to stay.
