The front desk agent was friendly. The room was clean & there was a small refrigerator and microwave. This is a no frills motel and this is reflected in the price. There wasn’t many towels but I think they were accidentally forgotten. I would suggest another pillow as there was three but they are quite small for a queen bed. The room comes with two bars of soap. Make sure to have your own shampoo, conditioner or Kleenex. The only really complaint was the music at midnight and the paper thin walls. There is pride in ownership here. 🤗

Fast and easy check in. I love that the deposit can also be cash for a faster return deposit. It’s just down the hill from my husband job very convenient for us. Next to a 7-11 and multiple fast food restaurant.
