This property served its purpose but was run down, the bathroom had rust stains and water damage, desk was well used and the chair was awful. But we were able to sleep and I guess that was what was needed.

The lady who checked me in, Dik something, was amazing!! I forgot to book a pet friendly room, upon check in she upgraded me for no extra cost. She was helpful, respectful and understanding. The rooms are way nicer than I remember. Parking still stinks but it’s an older motel. AMAZING beds and comfortable. Will come back :)
