Property was pleasant, and very close to I-40. This isn't a new facility, but presented itself well, clean and renovated. My room was very clean, and above expectations for a budget motel. I stayed 3 nights and each were pleasant, comfortable. I slept well. The beds were comfortable, bathroom clean. I didn't eat breakfast there, but the coffee was good. Front desk folks were very pleasant and efficient. This was a very good experience for me.

We just wanted to take a night to get away and not think about our everyday life,we just wanted to relax, and thays what we did. It was quite, the staff was very friendly, which they always are, we will get us a room there a few times a year and we've never had any problems. They're great people and have always been helpful and giving us anything we ask for.

Positive google reviews were deceiving

Beds were very uncomfortable, woke with backache. Toilet loose at base, sink faucet loose. Lamp outlets didn’t work. Remote was dysfunctional. Bath towels were stained. Carpet in the hall was filthy. Ice machine was leaking with towels laying in the water. Breakfast was missing half of the essentials. Bedding was clean. Lady at the desk was lovely. Overall the facility needs major attention from management.

The breakfast was advertised as having a lot of options but it did not even have eggs. The bed were clean but very very stiff and our bathroom was clean except for the rusting bath and we would see underneath in the wall.

The bed was comfortable and it was quiet which is great. It looks like it's currently under refurbishment so I forgive the mess at the moment. Either way, it was affordable, quiet, and the coffee was surprisingly good.
