TV didn't work. I went to front desk 3 times. He moved us to another room. The TV was old and small. The halls were dirty. Only 1 ice machine worked which was at the other end of motel. The lobby restrooms were locked in the evenings and overnight to keep out illegal activities. One entrance door on the side would only allow exit not entrace. Young people were running throughout from rooms to rooms. We chose this hotel because we were told there was RV parking available but there wasn't. We took up many parking spots. I would not recommend staying here.

Good value and good stay

Cleanliness was good. Food options nearby were OK. Nice little property but a little older. Bathroom door in my room was messed up and you had to lift it up and push to get it to close without making a huge amount of noise and making it tough to close. Noise in the inner hallways outside the rooms was kind of loud in the mornings with door slamming and voices very loud. The free breakfast is good. Decent selection good hours. All in all it’s a good place to stay and is at a decent price.

Average at best

No Elevator and on the second floor. Had to switch rooms at check in as they smelled of pets bad. The staff was friendly, ice machines were both broken. Bed was good, bathroom is tiny. Breakfast was okay and very busy everyday.

This hotel was good for two nights. The bed was comfortable, and it was quiet in the hotel through the day and night. The carpet looks like it needs to be replaced, other than that it was OK.
