This was a no frills hotel that satisfied us for a one-night stay. Not much of anything to do around the hotel, and it wasn't a very convenient spot right off the highway. I wouldn't suggest this for a long-term stay, before our one-night stay it was fine.

Stayed one night while traveling was what you would expect for the cost. The rooms looked to have been recently updated but the beds were questionable. Lots of noise during the night from what is assumed to have been extended stay patrons of the motel.
