Basic to the point of being uncomfortable

Word to the wise: this place is basic to the point of being uncomfortable. Nothing wrong with basic accommodations, but both the reviews and the price point suggest a nicer experience. See if you can find a better branded hotel in the area - should be about the same money or just a little more.

Basic clean motel for an overnight stay

It's not fancy, but it was clean, the shower had good water pressure, and the gal who checked us in was kind. If you just need a place to sleep for the night, it's a fine choice.

Clean, comfortable and quiet. Only drawback is the horrible towels. Small, thin and scratchy. They don't match the quality of everything else on the property
