Great value for the money. The stuff was super helpful! Very fast check in, and I had an emergency and couldn't get back to the hotel until late, and they were super kind and packed up my stuff for me. What it lacks in luxury it makes up for with love. Thanks Columbus!

Not a Happy Place

This was not a happy place. It's quiet until the sun goes down, then the night crawlers come out. The walls are paper thin, the loud noises outside never end till the sun comes up. If it's rest you seek, this is not the place to get it.

The room was clean. One sheet had a small tear. Things appear either worn or newly updated. It was much quieter than anticipated and on a Saturday night. I was surprised about the $100 refundable deposit. Overall, a good place to rest.

Old just like the other motels in the area

Family run motel. The family was very nice. Definitely an older building. They have done some remodeling inside the rooms without changing the layout. Very old buildings, bathrooms and stairs. On a very busy road that is loud all night long.

Overall it's been a nice stay. The area is a little shady feeling. On my walk back from the bus I had someone try to stop me to ask for drugs. The property is clean and looks presentable. My room wasn't quite ready when I showed up at 4pm. The man behind the check in desk was kind enough to run and check on my room as well. It only took about 5 more minutes before I was able to get to my room.
