I love the old Tel Star sign. Room was clean, TV worked and there was even a toaster. The bathroom was exceptionally small and I count not figure out how to switch the bath faucet over to the shower head. The inside door latch is broken. There was no place to leave (physical) key upon early checkout. (Some people had left their keys in ashtray besides office door. yuck).

We booked this motel last minute and stayed only one night. The rooms are outdated and need a major renovation. It’s a cheap motel, but there are better and cheaper alternatives nearby, like Motel 6. The beds were good, but the room itself was in need of an update. It had a stove and a fridge, but the condition was poor.

They say you pay for what u get … I stayed at the motel 6 a couple weeks before for only 15 $ more and it was 100% better. This room was disgusting! Smelled like someone smoked in it for years, there were stains in the bed the curtains, chair and carpet. The tub was stained, the mirror was dirty. The a/c unit was gross , Thank god I brought my own blanket. I do not recommend . The only good thing about this place was the staff

I liked it had a kitchenette and 2 beds where 1 was separated as its own room. Very convenient, could park right in front of door. We had a baby with us so unloading and reloading was very helpful. Didnot have continental breakfast but because it had kitchenette we could make our own from the ite.s we briught with us.
