We have stayed at the central motel a handful of times. Absolutely love it on every visit! Can hardly believe it is rated as a two star motel. Rooms are large and clean with tons of floor space. So bright and comfortable. Not a large hotel chain so maybe doesn’t have the same amenities but has an amazing restaurant right on site and a really nice pool. Highly, highly recommend!

The room was spotless, very comfortable beds. The staff was very friendly! The room I was in #2, right next to the office, was very convenient, but you could here everything that went on outside - people talking, & the traffic.
