Comfortable at a great price.

Comfy old-style motel, but has been refurbished and is in great condition. Plenty of convenient parking. Friendly helpful staff. No breakfast included, but a great value nonetheless.

Jodi

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staff were especially accommodating and the location convenient for my purposes. The room and fixtures were clean, and AC/heat worked well without excessive noise. The bed was firmer than what I've experienced in most lodging, and I appreciated that. The curtains could be heavier to block street and early morning light. The door on my unit was difficult to close because the bottom dragged. I would stay at this property again.

Obviously older motel, but nicely maintained. Staff super friendly on check in. Budget friendly alternative to more expensive chain hotels. Great for a one night stop on the road.

Small hotel in a small town by a truck stop. Didn’t look like much from outside and older inside but very clean and comfortable beds. They put us in a handicap room so lots of space. Check in easy and friendly staff. Great value for the money, and would stay again.

Great price for basic lodging.

No frills, basic lodging. The bed was comfortable and the shower was excellent. Clean rooms and friendly service. The motel is conveniently located off I-80. If the situation presents itself I would definitely stay there again.
