This motel is a Motel 6 with anew facade. The room doesn't stink, but no service. You get what you pay for. An additional $20 per night would have gotten expected services (did not meet much) at another hotel. Run from this.

They place was spotless but the only problem I had was the the cable on the tv wasn’t working as it would be static and the sound wasn’t working so I had to change to my Xbox. And the WiFi would go out at random times and I had to constantly reconnect my game.but other than that everything was amazing and the staff was nice

Staff was nice but it felt dirty. Broken tap in bathroom. I was uncomfortable enough that I didn’t shower. Thought we saw a roach but couldn’t confirm after an arduous search. My dog liked the bed though.
