Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
We stayed here because it is rated 8.8 "very good", and was one of three hotels with vacancies on this date. All of the other hotels were all booked for that night. As I drove up I immediately felt unsafe at this place but had already made a reservation. When I tried to enter the office to check in it was locked. The staff member walked up and unlocked the door. I went in and he asked for my ID. I handed it to him and then he told me to go wait in my car as he handed my ID back. I asked why? He said he had to walk around and find a clean room. Several minutes later he came back and helped another guest who arrived after me. As he checked me in he told me he was tired and had not been able to eat all day. I said okay. He gave me 1 room key and we went to our room. Through out the evening the parking lot was fille with teens hanging out in the parking lot. The room stunk of cigarette smoke. I cant figure out why this place had an 8.8 rating. NEVER AGAIN!!!

We have stayed at this motel before and liked the staff and cleanliness of the room. This is an older style motel, but updated and very well maintained. Although there is no breakfast served, there are plenty of eating options nearby and they do have coffee in the mornings.

Had a family emergency and couldn’t stay and I bought the protection fee but still couldn’t get a refund on my cancellation because it was “too late”. What good is buying the protection mess if it doesn’t really matter?
