Upon arrival, the staff was not very personable. The room was cozy and cleaned, but not-so-much the exterior. There was garbage and bird crap in the walkways all 4 days we were there. At the top of the stairs there is an abrupt change of the floor level that is not clearly marked and is a tripping hazard. This was pointed out but not sure they understood because of language barrier.

This motel was a bargain. The property and rooms were very well kept up. The staff was great and very helpful. One nice feature was a coin operated washer and dryer on site so we could do a load of laundry. I would stat there again and highly recommend this business. The owners take pride in their establishment and take care of the landscaped plants and flowers.

Nice room, polite staff...great pricing and a very cool coffee machine. Would've given 5 stars all around, but the shower wasn't great for anyone over 5'6". Low shower head...but everything else was great!

Filthy Rooms!!

Convent location for an early morning trip. Wanted to save myself from a long drive at 2 am so I stayed there. EXTREMELY FILTHY rooms. Bed wasn’t bad but the room being so disgusting made everything uncomfortable overall. I understand this is a cheap option in the area, I’m not too picky especially when I’m just looking for a decent few hours of sleep. Even being outdated and having things the water faucet broke wouldn’t bother me too much if they just took the time to actually clean the room. Good spots on the wall, not stains. Could easily be wiped down. Clearly dirty floors and floor boards that a quick mop could fix. For sure need to hire a cleaner.
