Front desk needs a class in customer service

I attempted to check in a bit early (1:30 pm) in order to dress for an event. The lady at the desk, Carly, told me check in was at 3:00 pm. Proceeded to scold me that this is standard at all hotels. Finally, after asking if they didn’t have just one room ready for occupancy, she rolled her eyes and made the accommodation while still scolding me. Sorry to have bothered you, Miss Carly. That won’t ever happen again. Won’t be back.

This is an older building that is being upgraded. The room was clean, had all the amenities you would find in a more updated hotel. I would recommend updating to heavier comforter, higher quality towels. Lamp chargers did not work.

Confy bed, good breakfast

The property itself is kind of old school but things were clean. Breakfast was very good with a nice variety of hot and cold items. The bed was super comfortable for us. We would stay there again. Only negative was water in the shower was kind of lukewarm our first morning, but hot the second.

It's okay

This motel is right off the interstate, which is helpful when driving through. Unfortunately in the morning, you will have to walk outside to get to the coffee. The rooms are kind of outdated and the beds were not comfortable, in my opinion. Lastly, the tub is not a walk-in, but there is a grab bar because it is quite slippery.
