I debated on how to rate my experience due to some challenges at check in. As we know, first impressions are everything. The desk worker at check in wasn’t the most pleasant and the lobby was locked (transaction was competed through a small window between entrance doors). We got to the room and walked in to a very pleasant surprise! The room was very modern and in pretty good shape. There was a large tv, cable, a microwave and refrigerator. The bed was comfortable to lay on, but not as comfortable to sleep on, that was just personal preference and does not reflect on the motel. The shower was upgraded, but not all of the nozzles functioned. I do not fault the motel for this. After check in we were not bothered by anyone during our three day visit. We were in the ground floor which I typically hate, but there was not excessive noise from other guests or environmental noises. If you factor in the cost of the stay, we got a phenomenal value for what we paid. Overall, I would stay again.

Good stay for a tight budget!

This place is a good stay when you're on a tight budget. It's located in a decent part of town and the room is really clean! Some things to keep in mind- the TV is not a smart TV and the cable doesn't work unless the attendant come to your room and uses his remote to connect to the box. Once he leaves and the TV turns off, you can't control it again without repeating the process. Also, the USB ports connected to the outlets don't work. They didn't have anyone to come make the beds, grab the trash, or replace the towels while we were gone for the day. It's a motel, not a hotel. They were friendly and we knew this would be a basic stay when we booked it. We wanted to keep our money for the attractions.

The room looked great, and the shower head was unique. The shampoo and soap dispensers were empty, but at least they had a bar of soap by the sink I could use. It was right across the street from a Food City which came in handy
