GREAT value

This was an amazing experience. I took a chance and paid a lower fee for a locally owned motel. It was fantastic. Very clean, very quiet and great price.

It was one of the cleanest rooms I’ve ever stayed in. They definitely tried to create a comfortable room. But, I could feel every spring in the bed and there wasn’t enough open parking. It seemed like they stored vehicles in the tiny parking lot and I didn’t feel safe in the neighborhood. The room next to me was loudly under construction until 9:30 pm.

First it is a motel, not a hotel. So it is not fancy. But honestly it would rank higher than a number of hotels in the same $100 per night price range. Room looked fairly modern and was very very clean. It had a fridge and a microwave and a TV with a large number of channels. Fast internet. They provided a nice welcome book with information about the area. Checking and check out were easy. Plenty of towels and soaps and shampoos in the room. Cannot say a bad thing about it. For the price and convenience it was awesome.

But the staff here was excellent

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
The reviews rave about this place I guess because it was renovated recently, but it's still an old motel with paper thin walls. And they forgot to update the mattresses. I didn't sleep well, in part because of the bed and because it was so humid. The HVAC unit didn't seem to keep up, and at one point got stuck on heat and wouldn't turn off. Then I could hear someone in the next room talking in his sleep throughout the night...then I heard the traffic on the highway pick up at 5am. It was clean though.
