This is a family run motel, and I showed up late enough for my reserved room that I had to wake up the host with the doorbell at 1 a.m. or so. I realize that this is normal for those who run motels and hotels, but her warm welcome even at that hour stood out.

Regular roadside motel. Clean. Bad a/c (takes hours to cool). Hot shower w/soap and shampoo. Not enough pillows, and little weird dropping off key in check-out box outside lobby in the morning. Seemed almost like a random person picked it up and went upstairs to the room after i left - dunno. But... I mean, good for a night's rest. Gas next door. Sokay.

Good place
It was great. The only thing I would recommend is turning the a/c on around noon if it's going to be hot so we could have walked into a room that was cool and not 80 some degrees.

Do not stay here- Dirty
I have zero idea how this place is ranked at over 7/10. The sheets had holes and stains in them, the please smelled horrible, the air conditioner looked as if it were going to fall out of the wall at any moment and had birds living in it which chirped all damn night, the beds were extremely outdated and uncomfortable, there was animal hair on the sides of both beds which leaves me to assume they had not been cleaned, the pillows were uncomfortable, the water pressure was not great, and the toilet clogged twice due to low water pressure. I see that peoples comments are saying, “for a budget motel you get what you get” but that does not mean that it should be rated higher than a 3 or 4/10

Tired Traveler
We checked in late about 9:00 PM . Took us about an hour to un pack. We tried to relax from a long ride that day and find some TV to watch. We noticed the bathroom light blinking and my wife heard a frying sound. We were settling down for the rest for the night when my wife called me into the bathroom. She had pulled the shower curtain back and to her surprise and mine it appeared the sewer drain had backed up into the tub and dried, so it wasn't fresh?? We were not going to stay in the room with electric and sewer problems! It was getting close to midnight so we decided to leave and started to repack the truck. By the time we got ready to leave it was about 12:30 AM so I took the key back to the office. The lady that took the key was not very reseptive to us leaving and stated no refund as we should have said something sooner. She said nobody else had used the room. Maybe they rent some rooms by the Hour?? I believe she was insinuating we caused the problems. I stated we were leaving and if she finds it in her to give us a refund than fine. We had to get on the road. I had no sleep for almost 24 hours and wasn't going to stand there and argue. My wife and I are in our 70's and didn't expect these problems and her attitude.

The place just seemed old and unkept. My sights were notreal high with a $58 dollar room but this place isn’t nice. Also there is a master switch for the heat to work and didn’t find it till the next morning so I froze my butt off the first night. The second night the thermostat didn’t work properly so it was really hot in my room

I was in the middle of nowhere, having broken down on I-80. This place was my only choice, but it was so relieving to have a very inexpensive place be so clean. Quiet and comfortable. It’s not new, but it is clean and has everything you need. The beds are great, the owners are so friendly. Stay here. Near service stations and convenience.
