Two days later and I’m battling a kinked neck from the hard bed and pillow. Comforter had a dark print on it so who knows if it was clean or sanitized properly - but the room overall seemed clean. Impossible to sleep due to the air conditioner loudly kicking on and off and cars going by. Not enough parking for the rooms. They say there’s plenty of street parking … sure, if you win the lottery and find a space. At check in there was a glass-like partition for safety. I’ve only seen these in movies. Felt very unwelcoming.

I loved my stay here. It’s perfect for the price. Very convenient. My only negative was there’s not much parking on site and the spaces they have a very small. But the hotel is great. I’ll definitely be back.

I arrived late. I think I woke the manager up. The remote was not in sync with the TV so I had to call for help. Parking can be a problem as there are only 4 spaces and the manager uses one.

I was very happy with this choice. We had a 1 night stay and this was an affordable option that was better than my expectations. Possibly cleanest motel or inexpensive hotel I’ve ever stayed in. The people were nice, the decor was nice, and it had great water pressure in the shower, by the way. I would choose it again.

Affordable Kitsch

The place is unique and affordable for the area. Our only gripe was the thin walls that allowed us to hear our neighbors as they had a bit of a party after the bars closed. Loud voices went undeterred by management well past 3:00 am. But it happens. I’m not mad at my host so much as my self-involved neighbors.
