I booked because this property was neutral to the college! I’m so glad I did! This place is a gem. Affordable, clean and convenient for what I was in town for!

Super warm, no AC, at least 85 degrees in the room. After a sleepless night I was offered 10% off... Not enough for a completely disatissfied customer who will now never stay there again.

The desk clerk was incredibly gracious and tried to do what she could to make the stay a good one. That being said, the room itself was not even furnished with a small bar of soap, it had one half box of cheap tissue, the bedroom floor was filthy, the bedside desk handle was tacky, the shower ran burning hot or cold without warning, there's no air conditioning just a circulating fan and I was there for two nights and didn't have any maid service provided. When I spoke with the clerk at the main desk she told me that they have made service every 3 days and then offered me towels and asked if there was anything she could do for me. As I stated in the beginning of this review the desk clerk was amazing and as helpful as she could be but the condition of that Motel I'll never be back
