No breakfast at this motel. There were cigarette burns on the table and the night stands and the toilet seat was falling off. But was good service and a decent stay overall.

Met my expectations. Hotels.com randomly booked me a smoking room but they were able to give me a non smoking room at check in. If you’re sensitive to smoke, I would look somewhere else. The room was large and met our needs. But again, it’s an economy motel so you’re not going to get a whole lot beyond a bed to sleep on and a bathroom. Staff were friendly enough and helpful when my key card didn’t work (magnetic strip cancelled out being too close to my phone).

Do not stay here with kids. It felt unsafe. The lights in the bathroom didn't work and it felt like there were holes under the carpet when you walked. I would NOT recommend this place.

Save Your Money and Peace of Mind!
Disgusting. Hair and live bugs on the towels. Drug deal observed in parking lot. Super sketchy area. We were warned by a local not to stay here. Wound up checking out an hour after checking in due to the unsafe area/disgusting conditions.

It was comfortable enough if you have a small budget. The problems were the ants, and the bathroom and towels were not properly cleaned. The bed was very comfortable, and I appreciate the refrigerator and microwave in the room. I wish it was closer to restaurants or stores for snacks. I was hungry!

The room was clean and the bed was comfortable but substandard in some ways. The shower barely worked, the towels were thin, the toilet ran on and there was a bit of an unpleasant odor in the room.
However, the front desk clerk was very polite and accommodating. The whole property is about what you would expect for the price.
