This was a nice budget-friendly hotel. It's obviously not a brand new facility, but everything was clean and updated, making the most of what is there. The restaurant next door had very nice breakfast - simple menu, but good food (not powdered eggs!!) The television was a bit confusing, especially if someone wasn't used to finding "LiveTV" as an app on a Smart TV, and it was confusing trying to get to the channel you wanted. I had to get my door key re-set each day which was a bit of a pain, but since my room was right behind the desk, not as much as it could have been. Staff was friendly and helpful.

I judge a motel room by pillows and water pressure. Both were excellent in this location. I didn't see it for myself but I heard that the pool was under construction. And the restaurant was in a weird place, and had a bar/casino across from it.

I booked a room and paid and they called the day of check-in and said I booked a room that didn’t exist. They had no other rooms to offer and then asked if they should cancel my reservation, even though I didn’t have a room. They should not let me book and pay if they did not have a room.
