Great motel, was pleasantly surprised, park in front of your room, at the time of my stay there was great gas prices, restaurants not in walking distance but not far away. Easy off/easy on I-10. Not the best area of town but well lit parking lot. If I had to say anything, the shower was very soft, low pressure as I like a rigorous shower

The room inside was fine but everything else about this hotel needs work. Get a better sign fix the broken glass and the broken ice machines. The area is a bit scary for a single woman to be staying at night by herself. I will not be going back here unless they fix up multiple things
