The motel was very clean and fresh. It looked like it had been newly remodeled. There was a refrigerator in microwave and coffee maker. Had a nice safety bar to step in and out of the shower. Bed was very comfortable. There was a nice table and two chairs.

Good value.
Even though this is a very basic, older motel with limited amenities, it is very clean and the staff kind and helpful.

The room was too dim to even read in, sheets had stains on them, no wifi, tv was small and the picture was not sharp, the mattress was uncomfortable and when you lay down in it there was a distinct slant to where your head was significantly lower than your feet (I actually had to sleep with my feet towards the headboard).

You checked in at a walk up window. The room had an intense fragrance. It was overpowering. The road noise was loud. The next day my clothes all still smelled off that awful room!

This hotel was good. The bed was comfortable, we didn’t have the desired hot water though. It is close to a highway, so road noise was a little loud. The owner was very nice.
