The motel is easy to get to and centrally located. The room was clean and the cleaning staff was in each day. The mattresses were old boxsprings and we're not comfortable. Water pressure in the sink was very low, and the shower faucet was difficult to operate and needed to be replaced. The róom had a fridge and microwave, but no coffee maker. The breakfast served was all carbs. Coffee was available but there were no lids for the cups. Overall, I would not stay at this motel again. 1.5 stars at best. ,

I was rather amazed at how clean and well kept the room was with a modern feel. Plenty of choices to eat and shop close by and the a/c blew cold and was in good, clean condition. The only drawback was that the toilet had a weak flush. Still, definitely a great deal for what you pay for in comfort and cleanliness.
