The staff was very nice. The room was dirty, the furniture old, a drawer missing out of the dresser. The door between the rooms had a broken lock. A woman approached me when I was outside the room and asked for a cigarette if I had anything to drink and money. I felt very unsafe.

Clean, comfortable, friendly staff

Check in was quick and easy. The room was clean, no odor, and appeared to have been updated recently although it is definitely an older style motel. The room suited my needs for an overnight stay perfectly though. Everything in the bathroom worked and was clean. The bed was comfortable. The only issue I had, albeit a minor one is the temp regulation was inconsistent from the SC/heater unit. It worked fine but I could get a consistent temp so I'd wake up either too hot or too cold at times. To be fair, the weather was a bit uncooperative also, and that, I am sure, contributed. Overall, if all you need is a quick overnight stay this is a great place. Easy in, easy out convenience store across the street, and a clean comfortable room. I was pleasantly surprised at how nice it was for such a low cost. Can't ask for much more than that.

The room was kind of dirty. Cig burn in the sheets. Everything was old. I found a Walmart receipt on a shelf in plain sight that was over a year old. Walls were paper thin. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

This property looks like it had set for years. The work that was done to make the place rentable was minimal. The place is a work in progress. The bed was good with clean sheets and pillow cases.
