Surprisingly clean and nice for the price. Enjoyed having a kitchenette for our work related stay. Cant get any better in all of price or helper for workers. The only downside is they are always slammed with reservations sometimes weeks out. Would stay here again if I have work in town.
The check-in was ideal, with the front desk staff quickly and efficiently getting my information, giving me my key, and letting me know about the area around the motel. This is an economy room with no frills, however everything a traveler needs is there, and it was clean and inviting
The room was clean, and it was nice to have a kitchen. Loved the quaintness of the hotel and its outside amenities. I would definitely stay here again.
The basics were all good. The location was quiet and there was a popular food truck nearby. On the negative side, there were paint drips on the floor and fridge.
Angel the manager went out of his way to get the television working

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
This property is an older motel , poorly maintained, which primarily is renting to people who look like they are living there on a long term basis. The room was dirty, with paint peeling off the walls, outlets and the A/C unit falling out of brackets and a shower with no hot water. It is NOT the property that is shown on the Expedia website Those photos must have been taken years ago.
It was precisely what was advertised, and for the price, exactly what one should expect. It was not luxurious. The room was very clean, and the staff were very friendly.
I had a uhaul trailer and the manager came out and guided me into the parking space even though it was dark.

Excellent Value
The motel is very convenient and close to a few restaurants and the downtown area. Helper Beer (brewery and restaurant) is just a block away. The motel itself was clean but well worn. It is in the process of refurbishment as far as I can observe. The room had an electric fireplace, microwave, and refrigerator. For the price this is an excellent value. I would stay there again.
Warm room, soft beds, Hot showers.
Good customer service, polite, nice attendant.
Some bugs on the ceiling, but didnt bother us.
Beats camping. Thank you so much.

Liked: Staff & service
It seems like they may have been apartments? Train tracks are nearby, scared our grand daughter when train came through.
Its a last min reservation i made for a trip to SLC. Better to be safe then to fall asleep on the road or park off the road somewhere. Its not the hilton but served us fine.
Note the mixed reviews, which may have to do with exactly which room someone had and how much they appreciated the taco truck in the parking lot. My room was completely run down -- bedroom window fell out of the frame when I tried to open it, electrical outlet was loose, everything is worn, stained and dented. Dead insects all over the floor and windowsill. Check-in was slow and confused. Wifi worked and bed was OK. Didn't feel unsafe.
