The room was recently renovated and was fantastic! Only complaint was that the bed was very lumpy and worn out. Plus there was not enough handicap parking spots or wide/long enough parking spaces. Some sketchy people around but we had no issues. Nice place to stay and we'll be staying there again!

Cheap not cheaper.

They don't sweep very often and having laundry facility advertised and then realize it's down isn't cool. Especially since your charged for that option anyhow. Nowhere on the site does it mention that it's not available. And changing the time to get coffee in the office. All of a sudden it's not available after 10am and pulled and it's always cold and weak. Nothing like cutting corners huh? It really sucks because if a motel doesn't have coffee available 24/7 like almost all do......then it's a game changer and not worth staying there. Why isn't a lot of amenities not posted on site when your booking and thinking your getting all of them????????? We are paying for them, right?

Solidly Mid

Comfortable bed and reasonably friendly staff, but the room smelled of cigarette smoke despite a no-smoking policy, the furnishings had seen better days, and other tenants/people in the parking lot were acting strange (blasting music, revving engines, wandering around the balconies in pajamas staring at the parking lot people and looking lost and confused - actually, on second thought, that last bit might have been reasonable behavior…). Good for a cheap hotel and non-picky customers. There is only coffee at the motel, but they do offer a discount at the next-door IHOP if you present your hotel key.
