Good value motel which has been recently refurbished. Good quality A/C and bathroom fittings. I will stay there again. Staff were friendly and efficient. No traffic noise, but conveniently located.

Fine location for my one night stay. Staff was very friendly and helpful! I would say the place is "down to earth" pleasant that fits my needs. It might not satisfy people with an enhanced expectation.

The man who helped check us in was very friendly, and helpful when room keys were not working. Needed anything just had to ask. Room appeared clean, I know they are still working on updates throughout. Could have used a small trash can in bathroom, but otherwise was a great place to stay for the 1 night we needed.

The staff was excellent however it was the small things. First no towels in the room. We had to ask for them. Second the internet was horrible the first night into the next day-so no TV during that time. Pool wasn't in operation and no fridge in the room. And the air conditioning didn't work. The hotel was clean just a little older and very quiet which was a plus. If we ever decide to visit again we would stay there again.

The pool was closed, so that was a bummer. The desk person was kind and helpful. The room had a fitted sheet that didn’t fit the bed, the 3 pillows (it was a king) were very flat and old. The bathroom floor was sticky due to cleaning products not fully cleaned up. Nice TV, desk and free WiFi. Breakfast was okay, I think I was one of two guests so I don’t blame them for not having a lot. I was supposed to get the studio with a king bed/full kitchen and hot tub in the room. I got a regular king room I could have said something but honestly, with the room feeling so dirty I wouldn’t have used the hot tub anyway.

Overall, I had a pleasant stay thanks to the outstanding staff. Everyone I encountered was polite, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. They went out of their way to make guests feel comfortable. Unfortunately, the hotel itself could use some updating. The bedding and towels were noticeably dated and worn, and the room itself was worn. The complimentary breakfast was average, with limited options and nothing that really stood out. If the hotel invests in refreshing the linens and improving the breakfast selection, it would better match the excellent level of service provided by its staff and justify the reasonable price.

4/10 Poor

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The pool and hot tub are advertised on the site, but clearly they have not been open for quite some time, based on the bugs between the glass and the posted note saying the pool is closed. The staff is very nice and easy to talk to. The key cards don't work / they get wiped / erased when you keep them near a key fob or cell phone, which seems like archaic technology. The room was good, and the air conditioner, fridge, and TV worked. The bed and pillows are uncomfortable if you currently sleep on a memory foam mattress. I did not eat breakfast but did try to find cold water in there, and there was none. If you just need a cheap place to crash, this will do. If you are looking for something comparable to a Hampton Inn or other mainstream hotel experiences, I would pass.

The staff was friendly. The room had yellowish water. The air didn’t work. It was on 60 full bore when we got into the room and it never cooled down. When we opened to window for some relief, the screen was taped and allowed bugs to get in. The carpets hadn’t been vacuumed and had stuff on them. The sheets didn’t have enough elastic so they came off consistently during the night. The TV had no service, so I logged into my personal YouTubeTV account, but the bandwidth didn’t support television. It kept stalling and timing out. There were no wash cloths. The pillows were flat. The pool was broken down. They had milk and juice in a cooler in the lobby but we didn’t have any because the cooler was making funny noises so we weren’t sure how well it worked. They had a waffle machine but it wasn’t plugged in or on. There was no good entrance or exit. We went through a back road and drove behind a building through mud to get to it because of construction. You can’t see the hotel from the road so we missed it a few times. There was a tiny coffee pot but no coffee. A pull out couch but no extra pillows.

It was an OK visit. The pool and hot tub was 'out of order' for me and my 3 young grandchildren. However, the hostess was able to upgrade us to a King Suite with a jacuzzi in the room but was not the same. The room had an initial smell to it when we opened the door and I ended up sleeping on a rollaway bed which wasn't in the best shape. When I went out to get something in my vehicle, there were a couple of adults smoking weed so glad I didn't bring my grandkids with me. Nasty!! Also, when trying to check out, I had to buzz 4 different times to get someone to help me. Breakfast was good.

The check-in staff person Jackie was extremely helpful. The pool was out of service. The toilet in our room ran all the time. In all fairness we didn’t alert the desk, but just kept the bathroom door closed. The breakfast foods available were not very many. Other than the running toilet, the room/ beds we’re comfortable.

This property is currently being renovated. The room I reserved was not the first assigned but we were given the correct room. Both pools were non functional. The complimentary breakfast leaves a lot to be desired. The water was warm but not hot and the drains were slow. The ac/heater had the option for constant fan but that did not work so full time ac it was. I would stay again in the future. I am hopeful the renovations and repairs will be complete.
