This was an older motel that could use some cleanup outside. The rooms were OK with some upgrades like a nice bathroom sink/counter and nicer quality towels than usual. WiFi worked well, the bed was comfortable. We were in a room on the highway side which was very loud all night long.

If your room is on the back side of the building the interstate noise is quite annoying. Other than that it was a pretty good stay.

I don’t want to say the hotel itself was terrible because you could tell it’s been recently updated. I did check for bed bugs and did not find any but We did kill multiple bugs in the room including one cockroach. The shower water did not get hot at all, there was no tissues, shampoo, conditioner, any type of soap at all. Both toilet paper rolls were empty upon arrival. There was some guys next door that stayed outside our door hanging out in the bed of their truck all night drinking, yelling and smoking, so our room smelled like marijuana all day and night…which isn’t the worst thing but they were just so loud until about 4am. There was no coffee pot in the room so we went to the lobby in the morning because it says they have breakfast but they had absolutely nothing and the coffee pot was empty and turned off.

This served our needs as a one-night stop over but I can't recommend it if you require hot water or towels (we had neither). The freeway was about 100 ft outside our door so it is quite loud if you are on that side of the building.

Affordable and comfortable for the price

The rooms have exterior entry doorways so you do hear the outside traffic. The heater was a little rattley but not to the point that it annoyed us and it worked very well. The room was clean and comfortable. No roaches or bedbugs. Plenty of hot water for the shower. Room also came with a microwave and mini fridge which was nice. It isnt fancy at all but it is affordable and the conditions were nuce for the price. There was no shampoo in room but when i went to front they did have some for me. Wifi was available for my tablet, only lagged a little one time during a movie we were watching.
