cheap, but old and worn

Staff was very helpful and friendly, but the room was very threadbare and tired. It felt like it hasn't been remodeled since 1972. However, everything worked, sheets and towels were clean, shower was hot.

You get what you pay for

We just needed a place to sleep for one night and this did the job. Nothing fancy. My husband said that the shower head height was great if you wanted an enema. All in all it was what we expected out of a cheapo motel. They said they have been working on upgrading the beds. I don't think ours had been upgraded yet.

Denny's, although not our favorite, worked out well at 1am in the morning and the food turned out great. The hotel clerk gave us this tip.

Value Experience

Hotel is generally cheapest in town. Good internet. Little bit worn down amenities. Good value for the working man unless your fussy about fine linens and whatnot.

Awful

The most disgusting hotel I've ever stayed at, would not recommend to anyone. The rooms are dirty top to bottom . The a/c units are old and in need of replacement . The property caters to possible drifters and day laborers that party in the parking lot. This hotel is definitely not worth the $ being charged.

A Bit Run Down But Good Wifi and Price

The good: wifi fast and free, cheapest chain in town $45, iron/ironing board, first room had fridge & microwave (not all do), A/C cold, bathroom clean The bad: older hotel, decor & carpet older, pillows tiny, doesn't smell like a meadow of flowers in the spring Overall, I was fine to stay there for a couple weeks while I was looking for a place to live because of a new job.

Cheap, not good

The hotel is cheap. That's about all there is to say that's remotely positive. Rickety, terrible bed and pillows, poor AC, feels like the walkway to the 2nd floor entries are going to collapse.
