Decent condition for the area. Needs serious renovation. Great staff.
Verified review

8/10 Very good

This is an older motel, but very nice. The room was small, but still had 2 beds, recliner, refrigerator/freezer, microwave, coffeemaker and hair dryer. We didn't expect these for the lower cost than the other motels in the area so we didn't use them. Access to check in and check out were a little more difficult than most, but it worked. Will stay again if in the area.

The owner was very friendly and gave us good directions to the honor band concert. Nothing fancy but very comfortable. The towels and sheets were bright white and smelled fresh.

The manager and her husband are sweet and very helpful. The room is solid with a very comfortable bed, a fridge and a microwave. Good deal for the very good price.

Great

We stopped here for a night while traveling. The room was clean and easy check in. We like the open to the parking lot because we have a dog. You have to remember this is an older motel so the lighting is darker. We loved a TV that actually worked and we didn't have to mess with a dish.

Room was clean and good. The weather was raining, so satellite TV didn’t work. Parking lot has some large pot holes. Breakfast was little Debbie danish and coffee.

10/10 Exceptional

One of the best places we've stayed during the past 6 months of traveling the country. Now, it really depends on which building you stay in. We couldn't stay in the south building at all due to some water damage, but the staff was very kind despite our complaint and promptly put us in the north building in a lovely retro room. Completely quiet, large, comfortable and everything worked great. Actually incredibly rare features for cheaper places, about 100 hotels and none of them had all of those features. The only thing about this place is the north building didn't have outside doors to the room. Would probably stay longer next time.

6/10 Good

PROS: Nice water pressure, air conditioner cooled the room, large room, comfortable chair & bed, nice people. Not terribly run down for its age but it is showing its age. I like easy access to the room. CONS: Advertised breakfast was a joke. Luke warm coffee, packaged sweet bun, and orange drink. The air conditioner was very noisy which made sleeping difficult. The entry door I used had bird droppings on the handle. I would not expect the nest to be moved but I would have expected them to clean the handle and the pile on the step. All-in-all their regular price is fair enough. I would not stay there at the holiday weekend rate again.

Verified review

2/10 Poor

I checked out within a hour. The room was disgusting, smelled aweful, a plastic bag was over the smoke detector and there was mice. The shower had dirt in it, the towels was stained and the miniblinds were all broke. They even charged me for a pet even though i have a real working service dog. Never again and would not recomend. I stayed the night in my truck instead and i never got a refund. The owner was very sketchy.

It was a very basic room. Air conditioner work on high only. Towels were old and dirty. Parking lot was a mess. All in all. It served our purpose for a one night sleep. But get breakfast somewhere else.

10/10 Exceptional

Very nice motel and very friendly. Not fancy but for the money it is perfect for someone just looking for a place to sleep. Fridge and microwave but no shampoo, conditioner, personal amenities. Also could use a few chairs in front for guests to sit outside. It was actually perfect for me and what I needed.

Sales rep

I used to love the place. However it's very run down and the carpet is filthy. The parking lot has huge ruts/holes again showing no maintainence. The beds must be 50 years old.$49 is too much.

Would not recommend

Dank, wet carpeting in room, and their "free breakfast" consisted of stale coffee and a plate of Little Debbie Honey Buns.
