Very friendly staff very clean inside and outside lots of restaurants around the area
This place was pretty nice, especially for the price. I often stay at LQ about 10 miles away but this is nicer and the staff was very friendly and helpful.
Room look decent upon entry. When the lights went out the roaches came out. Would not recommend this hotel.

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.
Room was clean but the faucet in the shower has some issues and the staff kinda had an on and off attitude but over my stay was fine would come back again
They tried is all i can say. Seemed like new flooring and some reno work was done however poorly renovated. Smoke alarm hanging off tbe wall, socket cover falling off, cracks in wall/vanity, and unfortunately some bugs.
It has a nice kitchenette area and it was clean and a nice room! I'd stay there again if I were in the area!

Attitude of staff. Heat not working in first room ; after complaining about the heat not working I was moved to another room. Before moving , the maintenance guy tried to convince me that nothing was wrong with the heat when it was.
My week long stay was great. Clean, well managed property with good wifi, hot water, coffee in the lobby. All staff were friendly and courteous from the late night clerk checking me it, the day desk clerk, and the heloful and thorough housekeeping gentleman. This is an affordable property that really is worth staying at.
It was clean but there was a roach in the bathroom, also expected a bigger breakfast selection for the price

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
