Categories

Cleanliness
3
Frequently cited as a major issue: multiple guests reported filth, roaches, bed bugs, black hair/handprints, mold in the bathroom and disgusting stains on pillows — cleanliness is a serious negative across many reviews.
Service
7.5
Service comments are mixed but generally positive: several guests praised friendly, helpful staff and quick late check-ins, though there are isolated reports of disrespectful front-desk behavior and billing disputes.
Location
8
Mentioned positively: close to restaurants and local attractions, convenient for short stops, and a Tesla charging station nearby — location is a clear strength.
Room Quality
4.5
Mixed room quality: some guests found beds comfortable, but many reported old furniture, musty odors, non-working AC, mold and other maintenance issues that lowered room quality.
Amenities
5.5
Amenities are inconsistent: free breakfast is available (bagels/muffins/cereal), but guests reported a closed pool, occasional non-working microwaves/fridges and limited on-site features.
Value for Money
7
Perceived as good value by many travelers — inexpensive and acceptable for budget stays; several guests recommended it for the price despite some quality trade-offs.
Food and Beverage
5.5
Basic complimentary breakfast (bagels, muffins, fruit, cereal) is a plus, but there are complaints about cold coffee and limited offerings — adequate but unremarkable.
Overall Experience
7.8
Overall sentiment is mixed: many guest stays were satisfactory for short or last-minute stops (friendly staff, good value), but widespread cleanliness and some maintenance/billing problems temper the overall positive experiences.

Pros:

We chose the motel late at night. I had a lot of good ratings. The air was off in the room so it was over 90 degrees. The bathroom had mold on the walls probably because there was no air. The beds however were super comfortable and we got a good nights sleep once it cooled down

A great stop on our way down to fl.
Very friendly staff, clean room, several fast food restaurants in walking distance.
Free breakfast. Bagels, muffins, fruit, cereal etc. Hard to find a good clean place to stay for under 100 anymore. Will stay again.

We were passing through traveling for a wedding. We stopped to rest, booked last minute was welcomed and also told about the grits festival and how fun it is. Wish we could have stayed. Overall the lady at the desk was very nice and our stay was perfect for what we needed
