The staff was excellent. Some of the most friendly folks. The only con, and it’s a small one, is that there was no counter space in the bathroom.

Well-run property in a less than desirable part of town. Exceptionally friendly staff, very clean but minimalist room, a bit noisy. Very reasonably priced.

Staff were really friendly and the check in/out process was seamless! Room was also neat and tidy, bed was comfortable. The only suggestion i would make is to have a sink top, as there was nowhere to put my travel toiletries bag.

Please don't let the location sway your thoughts about this motel. It has been totally renovated, has secure parking behind a gate, and is super clean and comfortable. The room I stayed in was very quiet and nice. The desk staff is friendly and inviting. I'll definitely stay here again when I'm the area. Great value for the price!

My stay here was great! Heidi was amazing and so very helpful!. The location is not the best, but property has a fenced in area where your car will be safe. The bus line is not far. Several food locations nearby. Room was very clean. I would give it a 5 except no amenities but I would stay and recommend this place to anyone.
