Basic motel with good wifi. We liked the vinyl plank flooring over carpet as it made the room look lighter and cleaner in appearance. Due to college graduation at UA and Mother'sDay weekend, the Italian Restaurant was booked up so we couldn't try it. We just went to another small family Italian restaurant about 2 miles away.

Worst experience, please read

This was a terrible mistake. We relied on the feedback and Hotels.com reviews and rating to make a last minute decision to stay there. We picked a non smoking room because my dad suffers from Asma.. immediately when you walk into the door, the overwhelming smell of smoke hits you- the office couldn’t do anything since they apparently don’t enforce their policy. The room itself if horrible, patched walls, mold in the bathtub, bed not comfortable. And if you don’t like people cooking outside of their door room on a portable bbq grill, don’t stay there.

Showed up at 3:30 pm. Room wasn't ready. How can a person reserve a room and it not be ready by 3;30 pm? That's 4:30 hours to get a room ready . I should get a refund! Expedia should remove this place from it's services.

Great place to stay. They will match online deals as well. So you aren’t charged all the 3rd party fees. There are some who live here but they don’t cause no harm, and very polite.
