Plenty of loud barking dogs living there. Old dilapidated motel. Neglected. Just gross. Could not sleep, in spite if being road weary. Morning came and no food or coffee. We splashed off in the sink, unwilling to use the shower.

The comforter was scratchy, and very nasty. The towels and wash clothes old and stained definitely would not give this place a “good”rating as Hotels.com has it for. I would say “fair” at the very, very best.

It was stated a free grab and go breakfast and coffee in common areas. It was said 24/7 Front desk. At check in we got told breakfast is from 7am to 9 am. I went there for a coffee at 7:10am all doors were locked. I went again at 7:40 am all doors were locked and the chairs were still up on the table. My friend went to get a coffee around 8:40 it was open but no coffee or any breakfast. I call that false advertisement. Terrible service.

The bathroom was TINY. The room was very dated. Needs updated from the 1980's. Also needs better locks for the door. It was adequate but just barely.

Easy stay

It was good for a one night stay. It had everything you need. I just missed a coffee station in the room. Other than that it was good.
