An excellent value. It is clean and although an older property, it has been updated. The paint work in the room was sloppy, and the acrylic tub was stained but those are my only real complaints. And at the price point, it seems like a fair exchange.

Was very clean and quiet the only thing I didn't like was that the door was very hard to open really had to push down on door handle to get it open a safety safety issue and the bath tub did not have a drain plug other then that is was a good hotel

The property's location is remote. There were insects on the bed and in the room. The amount I was charged differed from the amount I was quoted online. Additional fees were applied to various services.

Late night check in

Was driving late so found this motel off the beaten path. Was 20 miles off I20, further than expected. Got to motel and had to press the service buzzer after hours. Sorry we woke up the worker. Not empresses with the room but seemed clean. Had been ‘remodeled’ sometime before we got there. Craftsmanship lacking. Finish work needed extra care to detail. Everything worked though.

BEWARE! BAD EXPERIENCE

The bed sheets had particales on them, felt like fiber glass. It made you itch we slept on the top sheet after getting up in the middle of the night and taking a shower. Management said they would change the sheets, left all the dirty towels, no cleaning done to the sink or floors. Very small motel, not busy I would think you would go out of your way in a small town to accommodate your guest and build your clientele. Not recommended!!

Booked two rooms online. Drove over 4 hours the day of check in, to be told that previous occupants didn't check out....I would think they would be forced to check out if you book rooms but that was not the case. So we had to go find another hotel in an area we weren't familiar with. All while trying to prepare for the funeral we were in town for. Will not be back to try and stay here again.
