The staff here is great. I stayed here a couple of years ago when I had a house fire they were so awesome and understanding i had my 2 dogs then. I couldn't ask for better care ❤️ love these people as if they were my family.

The property is VERY old, with a vaguely Bates Motel vibe on the outside. Our room had a fridge and a TV, both worked fine (no coffee pot or hair dryer). Although most things were old (as well as the decor), they were clean and everything worked - plenty of nice hot water with good pressure. It was a quick one-night stop on the way to view the eclipse that I booked at the last minute, so I couldn't too choosy. Nick, the Property Manager, was very friendly and competent and seemed to run the place well.

The room was pretty clean, minus all the dead bugs around the window and floor. But my bathroom was nothing like what was advertised. The shower was a literal hole in the wall with a lowered floor to prevent water 'leakage'. Online pictures showed full tub bath. But the bed was comfortable and the staff was super friendly. The electric outlets were all very loose and my cords kept falling out.

Asked for a 1st floor room. 3 cars in the lot but no rooms available. Made 70&80 year old guests climb 2 flights of stairs with luggage. Web site said "pet friendly" No mention of charge of $15.95 until check in. Don't stay here unless you want to pay extra for your pets. Questioned the charge and the answer was "we don't put that on the website".

About what you would expect for a very budget friendly motel. Room was clean, but looked a bit rough (patched holes, flat pillows, etc.). We used this as a sleeping area while visiting family and that is why it worked for us!

They have bed bugs and sewage issues, sewage came up in the drains and into the carpet all he said was someone will come to fix it tomorrow. It smelled terrible. Was not clean, could not use plug ins because it would pop the breaker the breaker box was in another room. So the person staying in the room has to go to another's customers room wake them up to fix it. Hours with out power.

Was a quick overnight trip. Very affordable. The man in the office was very friendly. Room was clean and comfortable; could use a bit of paint on the woodwork trim. Only complaint was the very strong scented plug-in air freshener. Unplugged it and placed it in a ziplock bag for the night.

Outstanding customer service
This hotel did the job for an affordable stop to sleep on a family road trip. Clean enough and comfortable enough, and we'd definitely stay again for a quick stopover. Where this place really stuck out was their customer service! My son left his earbuds in the room, and we didn't remember till 90 minutes after we left. We could not turn around, so I called the desk; they found the earbuds, and put them in the mail almost immediately! They acted like this was no big deal, and told us don't worry about paying them back, although I did send them money to pay for the shipping. I am so impressed with their efforts and highly recommend this place!

When I made the reservation I forgot to request a downstairs room. When I got to the Inn I asked the gentleman if he had a downstairs room he replied to me that he had 1 but it was smaller and has a full bed. He offered me to look at it, I said thank you for the offer it would be alright for us. When we went to the room, it was a little warm but after turning the AC on it was fine. There was no roaches or bedbugs. The room was clean. The bathroom was clean. Only thing I would recommend is that the owners maybe put a small coffee makers in the rooms. There's a microwave and small refrigerator in the rooms. The refrigerator was cold. We don't know about the microwave because we didn't use it. We will stay here again. Thank you for having us.

Dissatified
I thought it was wrong to charge for an extra person because they made a mistake on the internet and only had one person booked. I put down 2 and the room was no different for one or two. We slept in the same bed. There was no amennities as even a coffee pot or coffee. Very dissappointed. We were told there was a Sonic down the street. Won't return.

Not worth the stay
It was humid when we walked in the hotel, the fridge was not only unplugged but it was moldy inside. It took 2 hours to cool off. I was fined $75 for getting a little stain on the sheets by accident. So in total i had to pay $155 for a hotel that was worth at least $60, thats just me being nice.

It is a good cheap place to stay. It looks run down and not appealing to the eye, however we had a very good night's sleep on a very comfortable bed. We read a review of bedbugs but we did a thorough check of the mattress and room and saw no indications of any. Be aware that if you have a pet with you there is a $15.99 plus tax fee per pet. We were not aware of this fee until we checked in so it ended up costing more than expected but again, we had a very good night's sleep on a very comfortable bed so it was definitely worth it to us. We have stayed at some really nice hotels that did not have mattresses that gave us a good nights sleep before so i won't knock this place because that alone made up for the outward appearance.
