The rooms were extremely clean and staff were very helpful. The only issue is that the walls are a bit thin and there is some road traffic nearby but other than that it was a lovely stay. I would just recommend maybe bringing some of those soft earplugs to help you sleep. You can’t beat the price though for this area.

Great location but other similar places we’ve stayed in the area had much better amenities (coffee maker in the room, conditioner in addition to shampoo). Not sure that we would come back and will likely stick to other motels of the same level we’ve tried in the past. Staff were nice enough.
