This is an older motel. Room was nice. We stayed there when it was pretty cold, and the heater did a great job of warming the room but was very loud. The mattresses on the beds are quite old. Not very comfortable. Everything was clean. An OK place to stay for a night, but keep expectations on the lower side.

Solo travelers use caution

I would not recommend this hotel. The room did not have any kind of lock besides the door knob. Also, the room keys were just behind the counter and the attendant was upstairs. I was traveling alone and felt very uncomfortable. Also, had to switch rooms because original room was not cleaned.

The microwave had food spills in it, the ice bucket and cup inside it looked like a soda had exploded so there were stains and drops in there splattered a bit, the bathroom mirror had spots all over it like it needed to be sprayed with cleaner. The beds were comfy and pillows were good though and the gal at the front was so nice and sweet.
