This is a no frills accommodation. The room was clean. The continental breakfast was a nice addition. You ultimately are getting what you pay for. For $150/night this is certainly a good option.

Aging motel with funky smelling rooms

The room was clean but had a very unpleasant smell. We tried a 2nd room and it had the same smell, so it's perhaps a combination of cleaning products and just old carpet, furniture, etc. We got some air freshener from the front desk and that helped, but each time we left and came back, we were grossed out by the smell. The staff was pleasant but I wouldn't stay here again unless they make some updates.

Decent Stay, Free Breakfast

I had a pleasant stay here! The room was spacious and the AC worked really well, which made it super comfortable. The reception staff were friendly and welcoming, which set a nice tone right from check-in. For an inn, the free breakfast was a nice bonus! There were eggos, muffins, cereal, eggs, and drinks to choose from. Definitely more variety than I expected at this price point. One small note: the provided soap was a bit drying, so I’d recommend bringing your own if you have sensitive skin. That said, the shampoo and conditioner were surprisingly decent. Overall, pretty good value for the price...comfortable, convenient, and a solid option if you’re looking for an affordable stay!
