6/10 Good

There was a pool with pictures advertised but the pool was closed and appeared to have been for a very long time. There are NO ammenities for the shower. There is NO blowdryer in the rooms or that you can borrow from the front desk. When turning the shower on, the whole thing felt like you had to be careful with it. But the shower was hot! The beds were ok, a tad hard for my liking, I woke a few times and my hips hurt from that. There were 2 pillows per bed (2 queen) and they were certainly lumpy, but I was able to manipulate one enough to get a good placement of my head. Looking out my window, I saw some window screens laying in places in the "courtyard". The front desk check in was easy and she was very pleasant, same for the checkout. Very very friendly.

This is the kind of motel that not too long ago would have cost you about $58 to stay there. That's still what it's worth, but it'll cost you twice as much. So low budget the floorboards have 1/2" spaces between them in sections - that's how much care was taken.

Stopover

The hotel is outdated, we stayed for the location only
Doug, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Stay was inexpensive and good enough for one night. Staff were courteous at check in. No elevators (only stairs) to second floor. Being next to a truck stop there was some evening noise but that settled down during the night. There was a surprise 50$ deposit required that was refunded a few days later as they promised.
Scott, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Outside was dirty, run down, inside did not look like the picture there were no kitchen accessories, not even a light bulb in the desk lamp. The room was dark. The towels were like sand paper. Very disappointed.
