A very clean, quiet, no odor, comfortable option. This was my second stay while traveling solo. Good landscaping, lighting, and simple modern renovations. A great place for anyone looking for a nice, bare-bones, no-frills motel.

When first arriving no one was there to help at front desk. Had to wait around. Secondly the place smelled and looked like a landlords special. Later in the day when I called for help because our TV wasn’t working the staff was rude! Gave me an attitude as if I was asking for too much. It’s safe to say we will never stay here ever again.

For the price the rooms were clean and adequate. I appreciated that they let us check in an hour early with no extra charge. That meant that my room hadn’t been cleaned yet but they took care of it immediately.

I needed a bed to sleep on and this place met that need. This place is definitely "you get what you pay for". With that said, I was disappointed to find dead bugs on the floor. Also, when you check in, you must use a kiosk system where you talk to someone virtually. I did not like this. Furthermore, they do not offer late checkout. I won't stay here again unless there isn't another option.
