Really nice room -- carefully renovated and clean, well laid out, bright with lots of lights, good heating/AC, even a variety of pillows. Quiet because it is set back from the road. Friendly and helpful staff. A motel stay head and shoulders above most of my hotel stays.

Very clean and newly renovated. Back from the road so very quiet. We will definitely stay here again! (Didn’t like the crowded/uneven experiences we’ve had at the local larger chain hotels.) Note: They hadn’t installed their new sign yet, as of writing, but we found it easily with map directions. At night “Rodeway Inn” sign was lit. Not a big deal, but the heater thermostat was abrupt at times, and stronger coffee would be welcome.
