Room was very clean. Accessaries are basic, but we really didn’t need the extra stuffs. A clean room and particularly clean bedding are the most important things for us.

We stayed in room 206 and it was pretty decent and comfortable for 1 night. The a/c unit worked great all night, the room does have hardwood floors and it was clean. The lampshades were outdated and dirty. It does have a desk to work on and there’s a TV. No small fridge . Bathroom was cleaned. There’s only soap bars, no shampoo in the shower.

I actually really enjoyed my stay. Check-in was a breeze. I got into my room safely. The room was clean and very spacious which is a lot to ask out of a lot of these hotels. The bed was COZY ! another great perk of this hotel. I’ve stayed in rooms where the bed was rock solid. So the bed was a great bonus. Tv, microwave, and mini fridge all worked well. Separate space for the restroom separate from the “kitchenette”. Plenty of space and storage for luggage. Great stay ! I recommend. The only discrepancy I would have were the surrounding neighbors. They didn’t seem to be the “cleanest” people around. A little shady. However, I also saw families with children and as long as you keep to yourself I feel like it’s a great stay for a short-stay.

We were surprised to find only three pillows on the king sized bed, but we were given another one when we requested it. The bed was comfortable, but the head of the bed is across from the sink area with a noisy old refrigerator and a bright floodlight beaming in through the uncovered window above the fridge and it was very hard to sleep with this shining on our faces all night long!

Simple budget motel

A quick last minute booking for a quick sleep and shower. Easy check in at 11 pm. Simple bed, bathroom, fridge, microwave and soap only. No shampoo. Bed was ok but pillow was hard as rock. Location was ok. My truck was full of camping stuff in the back and it was still there in the morning so that was a plus.
