This place is older, but was nice and clean it's not fancy, but if you need a nice clean place to spend the night I would recommend it, and they have a gas station a block away and a Dollar general a block away Plus plenty of restaurants choose from at the exit

We experienced a fine manager. Very friendly and helpful. However, the motel is like I stayed in as a child in the 1950s. It was clean and served our purpose at a very low price.

The friendliness of the owner, the fact that he thought enough about his customer to warn me to be aware of the many deer encounters there had been. Very personable!

This place looked fine. The one star negative is for Expedia as I always get a room that takes pets and this time something changed and when I got there the place did not take pets. Now time to deal with Expedia

The motel is a time capsule from the 1950's and is a fun place to stay. many of the other guests who gathered outside their rooms and talked until after 4:00 A.M. and therefore made it difficult to sleep.

Clean and orderly, but old and outdated with little upgrade. It is accordingly cheap if one needs to save money.

2 star motel with 5 star service attitude

Maahir was great. I arrived after midnight with a reservation and he was very friendly and welcoming. The motel is a bit older (50’s maybe?) and needs a little tlc, but the room comfortable. Even the late train going by reminded me of growing up a block from the tracks back home.
