When I made reservation it said they take service dogs When I got there they transferred me to there other property and I did not get a king size bed. Which my service dog is a Great Dane and sleeps with to alert me if I have drop in my condition and sleeping in a smaller bed is very inconvenient and the TV did not work and no one was available to help. I would not stay here again Do not recommend
Nice touches in the bathroom area with beige towels, rolled in a basket. Nice mirror. Very comfortable bed with nice spread rather than comforter. No kleenex. Parking in front of unit.
Old style motel in a wide spot in the road. Large clean room with updated bath, mini fridge/freezer, microwave, and cable. Good place to wind down after a long drive.

Check in was across the street at another hotel, needed to go to other hotel for normal amenities - ice bucket and ice for example.
The clerk was very confused and was not clear about things with me. He told me that I would have to take up my issues with Expieda and not him and I said I would. Then he just kept on making it difficult. The room was very nice and clean and comfortable.
Had to go across the street and check in at another (seemingly better) motel and wait for someone to open the office to check in. After I checked in, a group of gang member looking housekeepers and their friends all watched as I walked to my room. It was very uncomfortable.
The carpet in the room had a big stain in the middle that im hoping was red wine, and had about a dozen dead beetles and a dead scorpion next to the bed. My wife pulled the covers back on one of the beds and there was a live beetle in the bed.
The door lock was old and flimsy and someone could easily kick in the door. We barely slept because we were worried about out truck getting broken into since there was no fence or gate around the property and the train that runs behind the building came by at least every hour. Also, the direct tv box had no signal so no working channels on the tv, i tried everything including changing the input settings and unplugging and plugging back in. At least there was coffee..
Don't be scared off by the exterior. It is rather run down and badly in need of paint. But the rooms have been nicely remodeled and most importantly everything worked (A/C, hot water, sinks drain). The rooms were clean and it was quiet even with a large family next door.
This motel is a great deal for somebody or a couple visiting the area. It isn't fancy, but it is clean and simple and reasonably priced.

The woman who seemed to be running the property was great. Very friendly and helpful. The property however was lacking. Only one dining option in the town on a Monday night and it was not great. It rained and the room nearly flooded because of water runoff from the parking lot. Located very near a gas station and you could hear the music/announcements from the gas station in the room.
This was a great little motel. Spotlessly clean and quiet with very friendly staff. A good diner right beside that served great food.

The room was clean and neat, snd roomy. The hotel needs to do lots of exterior work, paint ect. Manager was curt and unfriendly when i questioned my roon rate. Not what i agreed to on line.
