VERY CLEAN - MOTEL (front door entry)

This motel is very clean. You can tell that it has been recently updated, but already could use a little work (in the caulking, workmanship, etc.) When booking, I didn't realize that this was a Motel vs a Hotel and wasn't too sure about being on the ground floor on the back side of the hotel with minimum staff on site. Ice machine is outside. Breakfast looked great. Front Desk staff was professional.

Can’t say enough about how kind the staff was. Very helpful. Getting in from a snowstorm they gave me a yogurt to eat being everything was closed. So I didn’t have to just eat out of vending machine. Very kind very accommodating. I’d stay there again for sure. Very clean Room

The cost for the room and the quality matched, which was great. Bedding was extremely clean but the bathroom was off (I'm sure it was clean but it was a little sketchy looking). Late night checkins are a little confusing because the lobby is closed but eventually someone noticed me and helped out. Parking is on the property and is free which is a great perk! Overall 8/10.

Arrived late at night and all doors were locked with no signs pointing where to go, only until i made my way from right to left checking every door did I find the small check in window. Here someone was standing there waiting like “he’ll find this window eventually…” muttered something that he expected me to hear through the dumb muffly voice hole, but i couldnt make it out so assumed he wanted my ID and Credit Card like every other hotel in the world, as Im pulling them out to give to him he repeats but yells “Name?!” To which I gave him the name and said, “Sorry, i cant hear anything through this window”. Never takes my id or card and sticks a paper out of the slot with quick impatient instructions on the three areas i needed to fill out. Gave it back to him and he game me the room key “drive around back”. Ok, so no: Hi… how are you… Welcome to… thanks for chosing… zero words of human to human interaction. Cool. Got it. Got around to the room and temp was set to 75 and it was HOT. I bumped it down of course so i could sleep without sweating but unfortunately the ac is a model that only has heat, cool, fan, and no “fan on” option. Since its mid january i opted to keep heat mode on so it wasnt 40 when I woke up, but would have been nice to have some fan noise because you can hear EVERYTHING through EVERY WALL. Kept the tv on as long as i could, but it was super bright so couldnt sleep. Guess i could go a day without sleep. No water pressure and shower head was clogged.
