Room was clean and in good repair. But it did not have a place to hang clothes and there wasn't a clothes iron. Overall the room was a good value when you consider what I got for what I paid.

The toilet was too low to the floor and no bar to help you get up! The sink had a lot of cracks in it and cracks in the tile of the bathroom. The tub should have been cleaned better.

The room was redone and was nice, beds were comfortable room was clean, bathroom could use a new shower head and toilet. The toilet is really short. There was no breakfast at motel and the best place we could find was The Over Bite was good and close.
