All and all for the age of the property, our stay was pleasant. I travel through this area several times a year but I did not know this motel was here. The owners are working on remodeling, assumedly it was recently reopened following being another chain's location. The staff at check-in was well prepared and friendly. The shower had good water pressure and was hot. The climate control worked well. Beds were new and exactly as they should be. The property is older and needing updating but our room as fine. A good value for the area -- and close to many restaurants and shopping. The Horseshoe Curve is about 15 minutes away. If we need a place to stay in the future, we will return.

Arrived and the hotel was closed. The place looked like a ghost town, maybe three cars parked on the entire property including mine. Some random guy whom I assume lives there was smoking a cigarette by the door told me they would be back at 4 o’clock. I went to another hotel down the street that wasn’t closed. I later found Google reviews saying similar things. I highly recommend that Expedia as well as other travel sites pull this hotel from their websites.
