Disliked: Amenities
The room was just average, as you would expect for the price and location. It served our purpose, but there is nothing notable about it. The mattresses could use an upgrade and the cabinets in the bathroom could use a good cleaning.The gentleman in the office was pleasant enough, but again, nothing outstanding to note. They could stand to invest in a coffee pot, with real coffee, for at least some morning hours.

Dated motel in the process of updating. Across the street from the train tracks, but no trains at night. A feed factory near by which makes noise 24 hours, but not too bad. On-site person was friendly and helpful.

The beds in this place are really uncomfortable. I would rather sleep on the floor. I tried sleeping here for an hour and then got up and left for another hotel. This place is way overpriced for the quality.
