The first room we were in marijuana was reaping from the vent in the bathroom. Wasn’t very clean. So they moved us to another room. There was no more smell of marijuana over there. People screaming and fighting the room was very dirty. I would not recommend this hotel to anybody.

The room seemed recently updated, new window was especially noticeable being this was a motel not a hotel. Bed and pillows were nice also. However, although I had to sign a waiver that I would not smoke, the room did smell smoky. I’ve stayed in worse but I’ve also stayed in much better

Clean & well decorated room and common areas. Helpful staff. Comfy bed. The only reason for holding back a star is the nature of the building as a typical motel where the rooms must be accessed from outdoors. Both of my stays there have been in the winter and the walk back-and-forth from the desk and the room and the breakfast weren’t great fun. Also, other guests step outside their rooms to smoke & talk and all that comes in thru the front-facing AC/heating unit. Only in all, both states were certainly a good value, and those were the only downsides.
