This is an old days drive up motel. It doesn't look like much, but it was immaculately clean and my room looked like it was freshly remodeled yesterday. The room was small, but was plenty for just me. The staff was very cheerfull and helpfull. Great price for the quality.

The location was convenient but the road construction taking place was inconvenient. The rooms have been renovated very nicely! However, the Expedia site shows a price of $59 a night when it’s first opened then once you begin to reserve the room the price changes to $65 a night. The blue bubble states, “ what you see is what you pay.” but the price goes up once you begin the reservation process? What’s up here?

The room was very small, but decent & clean, I checked for bugs and didn’t see any. The place looks like a former roach no-tell Motel, that the new owners have cleaned up. If you plan on spending much time at the hotel you might be more comfortable elsewhere, but if you just need a clean place to sleep it will do.

This place is an unknown gem! It's not fancy but very comfortable. The bed/pillows were soft like I need them to be. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. I will definitely be staying here again and again as I travel.

The room has been updated some and the bed was comfortable to sleep in. The walls still needed to be painted. There wasn’t enough towels but we didn’t mind sharing. If you are looking for a cheap place to stay the night, it’s not a place for that. The parking is horrible tho. No ice machine. The employees are friendly. Booked last minute.
