Checks all the basics. The room was clean and modern/ recently remodeled. Much nicer than other budget motels I've stayed at. Friendly staff. The only reason it's not 5 stars is that I can hear neighbors in the next room (which doesn't bother me).

Disliked: Amenities
The room was spacious and check-in was easy. They charged $20 for an hour early check-in as well. Only thing was our hair dryer didn’t work, the water temperature wasn’t very hot, and we were well aware check out was at 11am and they called us twice and when I was able to answer the phone at 10:45am they asked if we were checking out. I’ve never had that happen with a hotel stay..so, that was a little odd and felt we were being rushed out.
