The customer service was amazing. No one bothered us and the place at night was so qell litt that the comfort of safety was high. Nothing in our room was ever touched or moved and my only complaint would be that ants were in the bathroom.

I don’t usually leave reviews but I needed to on this one because so many reviews are negative for this little motel! Please keep in mind that it’s a MOTEL! If you are expecting a swanky hotel, move on. This is a clean, affordable and convenient motel along the 127 yardsale route! The staff is super friendly and helpful. The area is safe and convenient. The rooms are clean, beds are comfy, and there are lots of close dining option. I have zero complaints to list!

Drug area, use extreme caution

There were addicts all over the property. One couldn’t even stand up. Some rooms are remodeled and may be the ones in the pictures but ours was not. I won’t stay here again.

Our shower was wet, moldy shower curtain and rusted, no drain plug.There was a huge hole in the shower wall that someone had stuck toilet paper in , the entire bathroom smelled awful and the walls were like in process of being painted and had plaster everywhere. It was disgusting. We refused to stay and left.
Disgusting shower
Nasty, wet, moldy shower curtain and a hole plugged with toilet paper! So gross - and the smell was overwhelming - no way we were staying here

The only thing decent about our stay was the quick check-in because it was mainly on-line and the staff was nice enough. Other than that, the room was terrible, with fixtures misting or broken, the beds were horribly uncomfortable. I might as well have been sleeping on a futon mattress. And the shape of the building and facility itself was maybe a little better than shambles, with covered, non-functioning pool included.

No towels in our room and we had to go back down the stairs and around to the office after we carried all of our stuff up to the 2nd floor. Then the front desk person didn't believe us and said there should be towels in our room. There was not, he finally gave us towels and a few Styrofoam cups to use for water. Trash pickup on a Sunday at 5:30 in the morning. Faucet in the bathroom dripped and toilet paper holder fell off the wall. Only positive things Beds were comfortable and air conditioner worked
