Needs some upgrading

The room was drab (colorless) with only a mirror and one picture on the wall. No tissue paper, no coffee machine. The physical state of the lodge was pretty bad. Some of the doors were cracked and the parking area was pretty cracked. It was also the case that I was the only person there overnight and the following morning--except for a supposed homeless and disabled man who was staying two doors down from me. Kind of spooky, actually.

Check in was very pleasant. Everything was awesome for a roadside motel. We liked the smart tv so we could log in to our streaming services. Room was clean shower was as hot as you can take. My only complaint would be the mattress was not good. Change them and you have probably one of the best travel overnight stays I've ever found.

It was okay. It was quiet and comfortable but even though it was a non-smoking room it smelled of stale cigarette smoke. It could be freshened to improve.
