Review: It’s a roadside motel so it is what it is. The office smelled so bad I could barely stay in there long enough to check in. Pillows were dirty with no pillow cases.

Review: It's a very old motel. The staff is great but he only has so much to work with. There's no real breakfast. Truthfully, I think it was a little overpriced for what we got. But it was a moderately clean and safe place to stay for the night.

Review: The staff assistant was excellent. The challenge w this place is its old and feels old, very tired- no upgrades. As an example, the lighting in the room made no sense- a table lamp behind the TV? No light at the entry door where one puts their shoes on? The hallways are dark. The breakfast was meager and low quality. The fridge has a freezer but, it doesn’t keep your products frozen. BUT… you get what you pay for and the night rate here was as low as I’ve seen.
