Good price, Workers are very nice, the place is a little run-down-it appears to be from low occupancy due to competition from nicer next-door hotels.The hot tub was broken, the pool was cold. the breakfast was not much. nice beds. nice TV. Would not stay there again unless they have a great price

Liked: Staff & service
This was relatively sterile environment, the property looked abandoned from the outside due to limited landscaping, no cars in parking lot, and limited signage. The one concern I had was that there was regularly a stone propping open one of the exits. I was there four days and the door was always propped open, this location is not walkable but still felt like a security risk.

The girl who is the only employee working in the motel hasn't been professionally trained to serve in the hospitality business of US. It is very much like a family business. Breakfast is underserved as the girl busy talking on the phone in the lobby. We have to push her to refill the egg and sausages. There is an unpleasant carpet smell in the room. Housekeeper isn't supposed to enter our room when we weren't there during daytime, but they did.
