It was a nice place to stay with a nice staff although the doors to the room was very loud and hard to open. Room also had some damage here and there but was just cosmetic damage.

Closest to where we were headed
The hotel seems as they are trying to remodel it, however all the furnitue tv etc were very od. Looked morelike a dorm room. We fell asleep before 9 after a long day of travel at 12:30 the smoke alarm went off and we couldnt get it to stop. I had to climb on a chair that i almost fell trough cause it was so worn, i broke my new nails taking it down. They asked my husband were we smoking in the room. Nope sure was not!!

Clean room and a fair price.
The rooms were clean and recently updated. Beds were comfortable. You do get highway noise because of location. The outside could really use a coat of paint but the outside is no reflection of the room we stayed in.

For a budget-friendly stay, this was perfect! Its right off the highway, and a few minutes from a 24 hr smoke shop - so, I was happy. Only downside is, it doesn’t get a lot of traffic so you can feel isolated. Also, the check-in area isn't the best, but the staff member at the front desk was very nice and helpful. As for the rooms, I have no complaints. The bed was a little squeaky, but the room was actually semi-modernized, clean, and perfect for a quick stay. If you're in the area and want a nice little place to rest your head, this is perfect. If you're wanting all the bells and whistles, this may not be the place for you.

Clean, comfortable, and well-maintained.
Impressively clean and dust free. Hard floors, not carpet, less luxury, but far more sanitary. Walking in white socks, no dirt on them. Bathroom spotless, towels and linens perfect. Very comfortable but slightly squeaky bed. Room about 12x15, desk, chairs, night tables, microwave, fridge, everything in working order. Bathroom door opens in, must close it to get to the shower. Problems: AC very noisy at night when compressor first kicks in. Wifi weak in the room.

Strictly no frills motel -- book well in advance
When I arrived at the motel I was ready to leave immediately and find another place to stay. The exterior of the motel is rundown and shabby and the neighborhood did not look safe. If I had not made a non-refundable deposit I certainly would have gone elsewhere. The check-in was easy although the lobby was again very shabby and messy, with boxes and what looked like old furniture and supplies stacked in the corner. What a surprise, though, when I got to my room! It was very clean, newly painted and remodeled, the bed was very comfortable, the refrigerator was in good working order and very clean, and the tv had a lot of channels. I was given a wifi password but the wifi did not seem to be available. If you are looking for a seriously no-frills room for a night or two, look beyond the exterior and hope that you get as nice a room as I did. In addition, I had made a last minute reservation and the price was quite high, so make your reservation far in advance for a better deal.

It looks like the property is undergoing some much needed renovations. When we first arrived we weren’t sure whether or not we wanted to stay, but after checking in to our room and seeing that it was clean, we decided it was worth the price we paid. The beds were comfortable, rooms were clean and it was quiet at night. No amenities are offered, but not really expected given the price. It’s more of a place to rest at night and return to after a long day out.

Better than it appears.
It was difficult to navigate this location -- the office faces the highway but there were no cars parked out front so it looked closed. The interior portion of the horseshoe-shaped property looks rough, from the building to the road, and didn't make me feel necessarily safe at first. But the staff were nice, the room was fine - clean and smelled nice if a little outdated. They're working on renovations and it's definitely better than it appears on the outside.
