Clean, convenient, and a good value

The motel is fairly basic, but it’s clean and convenient (right off the highway and close to shopping and restaurants). The rooms could use some updating, but it’s a good value at roughly half the price of other hotels in the area.

Good, clean place to stay. It’s dated, but that’s ok. Beds were very comfortable and everything was clean. Slight musty odor when we walked in. But all in all, a very decent place to stay for a night.

Checking in, the staff was very welcoming, offering helpful information and complimentary drinks and snacks. The room was clean and adequate. A slight musty smell and somewhat outdated decor, but we had a pleasant stay and were thankful for their kind hospitality.

This is a good motel for an overnight stop. It was clean. The entry code to the room was convenient. It's an old building and it looks like they are repairing it little by little. The staff was friendly and have easy check in and out. Personally I don't like carpets in hotel rooms so that caused me some discomfort. Overall good deal.

The room eas clean and comfortable but small. Being an older building it was a cold room even with the heater going. All the outlets worked which is always the case with the less expensive motels. The young man that checked us in was very nice and helpful and the coffee in the morning was good.

A Comfortable Room

The clerk welcoming me was friendly and helpful. The room itself was clean and had the basic amenities covered. I stayed in room 18. The retro look of the room was unusual but oddly charming in its own way. The sheets and bedspread were clean and comfortable. I was happy to find that they have installed newer light fixtures above the bed that feature USB charging ports, as did the modern alarm clock. I noted, as others have, that the decor was dated and there was a bit of a musty smell. The AC/ heat unit in the window did a great job heating up the room. Getting the controls set just right required playing around a bit with the dial. The shower had decent pressure and hot water, but due to the placement of the sink it took a little maneuvering to get in and out. Overall, it was worth the money and I'd stay there again.
