The motel Staff are always kind and accommodating. There is plenty of parking, the rooms are surprisingly huge for the price you pay. Customers should consider this a blessing in disguise because there is no other motels around that offers this much for such an affordable, amazing deal. It's no wonder they are always busy. So book in advance so you can get the best rate!
