Toilet, sink and tub were stained, very outdated. At 6 AM a constant drilling sound woke me up and didn't stop for hours. Bed was OK, other than that, I do not recommend this place.

The place is now an extended stay with some nightly rooms. Our room had electricity only in the bathroom. Toilet bowl was completely brown! Toilet seat was broken with duck tape wrapped around it! Clerk was polite and refunded my money. But I then needed to find another motel at 11 pm.

The room needed a thorough cleaning. The floors had dirt on them and stains. The smell in the room was terrible and caused an allergic reaction. It smelled like chemicals. I would never return to this motel.

I Stopped Here Unexpectedly during the snowstorm on my way through town, I'm really glad I did. The room was very clean, quiet, and offered every thing I needed for a comfortable night. The hotel is reasonably priced, and I enjoyed the wonderful coffee in the morning before getting back on the road. A Great Place To Stay. HIGHLY RECOMMEND....

Room was nice and clean and the staff friendly. Only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because their tv technology needs to be updated, tv kept pausing non stop and picture wasn't the clearest, like I was watching everything in 480i.
