We didn’t stay for too long just a quick overnight, but the walls are pretty thin so we could hear lots of activity next-door. The bed was comfortable for a quick easy no-frills stay great place for a great price.

Basic rooms but the family who run it were very sweet and did little things like turn on the A/C in the room before you arrive, or leave a bottle of water for you. It's a motel, so you don't expect much, any little added touch shows they care about the place, and it is clean and well-run. Would definitely stay there again. Really comfortable beds, too.

It was a nice clean room with everything we needed. Mini fridge, microwave, TV, comfortable bed, blow dryer, and shower. All for a price that didn't leave you broke!

If you like to just pull up to your room and quickly unload rather than struggle with a cart trying to find an elevator, this is the place for you. It was clean and the beds were comfy. We would stay there again.

Overall good! Lots of parking, the rooms were overall clean and the beds were comfy with no bed bugs! There was a fair amount of dust and the breakfast was fairly basic but overall it is a place I would recommend for any traveler.
