This IS a Quality budget motel. Sure there are some cosmetic fixes that should occur (sink and vanity were stained), but for under $50 on a Thursday, this was a great stay.

I could tell the rooms are remodeled. The room looked great! Unfortunately, there were German roaches in crevices in the room. Mainly in the bathroom. There’s also no closet, which I thought was weird. I was in a non smoking room that smelled like it may have been a smoking room or smoked in years ago. Lisa at the front desk was courteous and thorough. I’d stay here again. Please work on the German roaches.
