The mattress was lovely and I got good nights’ sleep. Parking was excellent. Location is right on a main thoroughfare but nonetheless quiet. Staff is friendly and helpful. Kitchenette was adequately stocked; fridge, freezer, microwave all worked well. I didn’t try the stove and oven but they appeared to be in excellent condition. Altogether an ideal place to stay.

Very comfortable place, however when I booked through Expedia I was of the opinion it was pet friendly. Thankfully he had another unit available that was pet friendly. This is something you need to address, as I may have had no options and 2 hours away from home.

Great Motel

This was pretty nice. It's a bit outdated looking but it just a great job! Beds are comfy, staff is nice. A/C is super loud but white noise is not an issue for you, it's a great place. Plus there are a lot of food options around
