The check in area is a bit sketchy, the older Indian gentleman checks you in from behind a plexiglass panel and you slide your ID through a little slot at the bottom! He didn’t say much but he soon exchanged my payment for his room key. The rooms are dated but clean, and they were painting the outside of the hotel while I was staying. It’s the best hotel in this town! (The only hotel in this town!)

Disliked: Amenities
This is not a bad review. Just trying to be real here. They do the best they can with what they have to work with. If you’ve put off by the idea of staying in a very old “motel” in a small rural community, you should probably look elsewhere. This is my second stay in 18 months. For the price, it works for me.

Meh.

Room was clean and comfortable if old. The AC stopped working about 12 am, and then I was up fiddling with it every hour and a half to try to get it going. Manager was upset as he said he replaced all the units just last year. Wondered why I didn't contact him. (to move us? to send a repair man at midnight? Don't think so-but the sentiment was nice. Whether or not the concern was genuine). No ice machine. No coffee. And really out of our way for a "meh" experience. Would not be likely to stay again.

Don't judge by the outside

I was regretting my decision to book this room when I saw the outside of the motel. It is quite old. I was relieved when the room was nice and comfortable and clean. The walls had been painted, the t.v. was nice and there was a fridge with freezer and a microwave. The shower was warm and with decent pressure. Beds were fine.

The area is nice and quite. The only thing I didn't like is I was there four day and they only cleaned the room the first day. Plus I never got clean towels the whole time I was there

Only room left on the “good” side of the place with 2 beds was a smoking room. Don’t smoke and never have - room smelled disgusting. Property/rooms are very dated.

OK place to stay

This is an older property but the room was fixed up pretty well, bed was comfortable, things were clean. Nothing fancy here but was an OK budget priced overnight stay.
