Good place to stop for the night. We got in very late and had to leave early, so never got to enjoy amenities, or check out the entire property. Rooms are recently remodeled/refreshed.

I waited 30 minutes outside in 5 degree weather for somebody from your front office to come and let me into my room. The girl who came had obviously been sleeping. Terrible experience. And the heater in the room didn’t even work!! It was beyond terrible honestly. Worst hotel stay I’ve experienced

Check in was perfect. Amanda at the front desk helped us with the tv. Our dog loved the room which means it didn't have strong odors from other dogs. So we had a peaceful night ❤️.

This choice was based upon location to get us close enough to make the next day reasonable. Goal accomplished. The motel seemed safe enough. The room rivaled Motel 6 with a higher price? The bed worked. The shower was adequate. There was a microwave and a 1 cup coffee maker in the room. The shades closed. The TV had 1 volume...loud. Understand what you are getting - a clean bed, a shower, and a few amenities.

No one at front desk after 10. When attendant came he could not get the code for the door to work. Found 2 spiders in the room, and refrigerator had dog hair and what looked like urine in it. Carpet was filthy. Not worth the money!
