They are really doing a very good job at this hotel. The management are very nice and they keep a close eye on the addict's in the area and make sure they don't disturb their guests at the hotel there's all kinds of different places to eat within walking distance and the hotel price is just a steal. Coming to this motel is a win win situation. Thanks 👍👍

Had a wonderful 2-night stay! The front desk staff was friendly and helpful, and the room was beautiful—clean, comfortable, and stocked with all the essentials (shampoo, conditioner, body wash, mini fridge, and coffee maker). Room service was excellent, and towels were delivered promptly when requested. The outside of the hotel is lovely as well. Highly recommend!

Bed Bugs, Roaches, Filthy beds, Dirty Towels, just plain disgusting. The owner denied all of the above, although it is all evident, he refused to issue a refund and instead, moved into another room, which I could not sleep in after experiencing bed bugs in the first assigned room. I mean how are there giant green boogers and crumbs and dead roaches in the refrigerator and who knows what else in a tight and neatly tucked bed. (That was the only thing neat about the room). I mean come on, a picture speaks a thousand words, I will say less and post more! *This building is beyond a Public Safety Concern, it needs to be condemned.
