Much better on the inside than the outside. It looks a bit run down on the outside, but the rooms were clean and comfortable and had modern conveniences. Bathroom was very small but clean and bed was comfortable. Breakfast was all carbs, but there was a lot of choices like cereal, oatmeal, breakfast bars and yogurt. Employees were very welcoming and kind. It was an enjoyable stay.

While on the surface it appears to be "just another motel" ... it has been renovated very well and the rooms are quite.well appointed, clean, and not the musty motel experience one might fear. New showers/renovated bathrooms, new floors, comfortable beds ... all in all a place i am actually favoriting for the next time i am in the area.
