The hot water never got hot in the shower/bathtub. The floor was cold and needs a few rugs. I felt the lock on the door seemed flimsy and could be broken into easily. I appreciate the lower cost and don’t want all the amenities but the basics were lacking.

My Bay city visit.

It was a last minute decision as VRBO screwed up my original plans. We were pleasantly surprised at how kind the owners were and how clean the room was. It was kinda small but served it's purpose. Beds were very comfortable. It's definitely an older motel that is attempting to be revamped. Looking good so far. Would definitely stay again. And definitely grab breakfast at the North point grill and bar. Great food for a even better price.

Even though inexpensive, the room was more than i expected. My stay was for a month. The room was clean and the use of the minifridge and microwave helped keep my expenses down. Though the traffic was audible, which is normal for a roadside motel, it was mostly minimal. Overall I found my stay very enjoyable and would definitely stay here again.

You get what you pay for. Fairly cheap room. Clean but, no pool. Not much around this area except McDonalds and a few local restaurants. Just needed a room off I-75 for the night. It fit the bill. Just don't expect much and you won't be disappointed.

Small dated roadside motel that smelled like old cigarettes. It had two beds so you'd think it'd be for four people like every other hotel. We were in the room for about a half hour when the owner called us saying we needed to pay an extra $20 since we had 3 people or one of us needed to leave.

Good comfortable room for one night.

We only stayed one night after a concert. Comfortable. Bathroom was clean but could use new grout in the shower. The tv could be a little bigger. Asked for two beds and got three to our surprise. lol! Good big room for the price. AC worked. No chain lock on door we didn’t care for that since the hotel door was right outside. It was hot when we walked in because the windows were wide open and AC was not on. Push button lock didn’t seem to secure so we put the chair next to the door while we slept. But it was a good room and price for just the one night we stayed.

I appreciated cotton sheets & blue wall. No safety handle in shower. No soap dish. No place to hang wash cloth in shower. Could only have 2 plug ins by bed. I had to plug phone across the room. I dont understand why you dont touch up paint-doors, trim. Also, no safety lock on door!!!

Older, Clean and New Bathroom. Push Button Locks

I was pleasantly surprised by this little motel. Clean, well-maintained and more updated than I expected based on both the surrounding areas and the outdoors. The window AC unit was effective, and although noisy, it covered up any noises from the highway directly outside or any parking lot noises. My only two real issues was 1: there were lots of small gnats/flies in the bathroom. I am not sure if they were coming in through glass brick wall (there was a section that has been removed and a air vent/register installed) or elsewhere; and 2: the door lock was a simple push button like you might have on your bathroom door at home. No deadbolt or secure handle lock. Thankfully I always travel with a portable safety lock, otherwise I would not have felt very safe or confident in that lock's ability to keep anyone out. If you don't travel with a portable lock or door bar, plan to barricade the door with the chair.

Served our needs

Certainly not the Taj Mahal, but worked for a place to rest our head for the weekend. Coffee machine, but no coffee carafe/pot, one finally showed up the next day. Ice machine locked up at night, only 1/2 roll of toilet paper, while it was close to the destination we needed to be. If you just need a place to rest your head/sleep at night this place will work for the cheap price. Truth in "you get what you pay for."
