It was clean for the most part..it’s a very old motel and could use a serious overhaul other then several coats of paint..but I stayed there primarily for work, so it fit the price.
Always a good value for the price when we stay here. Faucets and floors a little worn and broken but still working, heater works well, and we were decently comfortable. Never any signs of bugs at all
Nothing glamorous, but clean and practical for a very good price. Heater worked well, TV worked, mini fridge and microwave worked. We would definitely recommend it for cheap lodgings.
A nice and affordable place to stay! It’s always a blessing to find somewhere budget-friendly while traveling. The staff was friendly, the rooms were spacious, and the AC worked perfectly. I’ll definitely stay here again!

This is an old hotel and shows its age. However, it was clean, in pretty good repair, smelled fresh, and had hot water. We got there late and left early. It did the job.
Old and funky but you can't beat the price. Laid over two nights on my way west. Saved more than enough money to get a tank of gas across the street at Love's
The room was very dirty. Crumbs all on the outside of the fridge by the microwave. A bunch of spider webs in the corners along the wall. The bathroom was very dirty with dried urine and poop on the toilet. I mean I was expecting much for the price and it being in the middle of nowhere. But gross!

It could use updates but you get what you pay for. It was clean, everything worked, staff was friendly
Hey great value the bed was extremely comfortable. I would definitely stay there again and we all know it is not a super expensive hotel so keep it all in perspective.
Only 2 electrical outlets in the whole room and they were partially blocked by an immovable table. I had to unplug the TV and refrigerator to charge our phones. Also, would have been nice to have 2 chairs instead of one for the table. Also, no trash receptacles in the room, trash had to be taken outside. Room was clean and comfortable however.
The room was dirty and the windows didnt even lock didnt feel very safe in my room had a truck stop right across the way and alot of traffic and its in a dark area..not comfortable at all..the room made me feel like i was in prison
