Pros:

Very nice for the price. Perfect for a quick night of sleep when in a long road trip. Fridge and microwave are in the rooms. Motel was quiet. Quick check in. Breakfast was very sparse so don’t plan on filling up.

Pros:

I had to wait while the teenager that was supposed to be checking me in said goodbye to her friend in a truck. I also had to wait for them to show up to check me in. And i appreciate the cleanliness of the hotel rooms but i think they need to not use so much fabuloso cleaning product. It gave me a headache and had to open the door and wondow to air it out for a good hour. Before i was comfortable

Pros:

Do not stay at this hotel!! BIGGEST scam ever when we arrived they notified us that their was a cleaning fee that had to be paid thru cash app $98 that we weren't aware of when booking! No hotel ever does that, the owners are super rude and they keep this money for themselves. Also the cleaning lady goes thru your personal stuff. my straightner went missing from my luggage. They also turn off your Ac while you're gone! If you're planning to stay the 24hrs of the day at this hotel their is also an extra free for that $85 extra. DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE!!!

Terrible Stay
Pros:

Despite calling ahead to say I’d be in late, it took awhile for anyone to answer the door and no one answered the phone so it left me as a lone woman in the dark outside a motel at 1:30am. Then they questioned multiple times what type of room I booked. Why didn’t they do that when I called hours earlier instead of after I’d driven 12 hours and just wanted sleep? Then when I did get my room key, it didn’t work, and they had to get me a different one. In the morning, around 9am, housekeeping knocked on my door waking me up, to clean the room though checkout was not for another 2 hours. Thirty minutes later I get another knock on the door from a different staff member, who was walking around with her little barking dogs, waking me up again, asking me if I had a car at the hotel. What did it matter, I was checking out soon?? Clearly staff does not communicate with each other nor do they care about their customers’ experiences at the motel. The room isn’t terrible but not disgusting, but not good.
