All employees were super courteous and helpful. My room was immaculate! I got a really good rate and I would def stay here again. My only concern was traffic noise at night. There was huge car show in town and the largest southern volleyball tournament, massive traffic all over. I could hear cars on the main road all night. Thankfully I brought a fan and sound machine. There's nothing the hotel could have done to decrease the traffic. For this reason, I'd recommend asking for a room towards the back of the hotel (fyi, the balcony rooms face the front/strip and side of building).

Property was good, suppose to be a non smoking motel but several rooms were smoking on balcony which was drawn into our room. Staff did investigate quickly. Breakfast was very boring, same food everyday, needs to be mixed up. However, would definitely stay again.
