Mixed signals: several reviews praise clean rooms and beds, but multiple reports of dirty pool, paint peeling, unclean bathrooms and even cockroaches lower this score.

Generally very positive: multiple mentions of accommodating and helpful staff (e.g., Sam and Nick), friendly service and staff described as amazing.
Location
8.3
Mostly positive—convenient location, diner within walking distance and good placement noted; several guests mention noisy rooms facing the highway, so location is convenient but can be noisy.
Room Quality
7.6
Mixed: comfortable beds and clean rooms reported, but issues such as broken TV connector, hot water/shower knob problems, broken furniture and peeling paint reduce the score.

6.8
Below average: pool mentioned often but frequently dirty and closes early, laundry advertised but reportedly unusable, limited or poor in-room amenities in some reports.

9.6
Strong positive consensus: many reviews explicitly call it good value, well priced or excellent value for the price.

Funky but cheap!
Pros:

The price was good, but there definitely is a reason for it.

Cons:

Temperature in the room was 92 degrees - luckily the AC cooled it down within a few hours. The pool was quite dirty and the 9pm closing time for the pool wasn't great. Paint peeling on the inside room walls - pretty sad.

Comfy beds and quite clean. Great for a night's rest.

Cons:

Make sure you stay on the back side of the Inn if you're a light sleeper (avoid the sound of the autoroute).
