I liked the cleanliness of the town. Gas was high. The motel is in a good location. Unfortunately the hot tub was out of commission. Swim pool was nice but a bit cool. The room needed a place to hang towels after a shower. I do not like the low toilets. Room was clean and comfortable.

This is a fine value motel, but it shows it's age, and they could really upgrade to two ply tissue and toilet paper. Honestly how much more could that possible cost. It was available and served our overnight need fine.

It was ok. Someone sprayed perfume or something after cleaning and it was overwhelming. The walls were thin, the futon broken and dirty and the bed was lumpy. Not worth the money

Check in staff inexperienced and indifferent. General condition of room and property poor. In the morning I walked across the street to get coffee before continuing my travels and when I returned my tool kit had been stolen from my motorcycle. It was not even in plain site..wrapped up in the cover and bungeed down!
