The hotel was very nice the bed was comfortable the room was decorated nice the shower got hot water fast. The ac and heater worked perfectly and I noticed that this hotel actually takes and cleans the vents for the air system which is nice. The price wasn’t bad at all either

The reception clerk was very nice. I had made a bunch of charges on my card earlier in the day and by the time I tried to check in, the daily spending limit was exceeded for the deposit. It was a rainy night and he let us into the room while we waited for my sister to come by after work to conver the deposit. The bed was EXTREMELY comfy. Much better than most!

They revamped an old motel. It's kind of charming kinda run down. Good deal for the price. A few sketchy characters around, good for a single man but I wouldn't stay there with my wife and/or kids.

The stay was for a business trip. It met my basic needs. This is an older property and the owners put a fresh paint and decor into the units. A plus for making an older property look attractive. The front desk staff are very friendly.
