The rooms are spacious and comfortable. The staff was nice. But rooms have adjoining doors (which you can lock) which leads to no sound insulation. The guy in the next room to me started screaming at 2am. When he stopped he turned the tv on all night long.

Not a five star hotel by any means but a five star review due to friendly helpful staff and clean room. Rooms and property are a little shabby and very dated, but for the price the place is comfortable and staff fully serviced the room each night. If I come back to the area I will stay here again.

It's a 1 star hotel but no one told them that. They operate their little place with pride and hospitality. For the price, it can't be beat. Unfortunately, I've paid twice as much and received half the quality. I'm definitely going to be staying here again.

Dirt covered the floor. Clogged shower. One towel. The lights constantly flickered.

Unfortunately there are bed bugs and my wife and I were both bitten throughout our stay. The motel owner tried to provide a refund, but he said since we booked with Expedia, we could not. Don't use Expedia.
