This is not a bad hotel, the comforter on the bed takes you bad to the 80s so it has that nostalgic charm, but the place is very clean and rooms are in a great renovate condition new paint, and so on. Bathrooms are nice and big and clean as well. dont let the exterior of this place fool you, for a motor inn, it is 8.5/10
