Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The office, cleaning and maintenance staff at this motel is top notch. I haven't had a single issue that they have not been able to fix and immediately at that. Identification is always thoroughly confirmed before giving any information or replacement room keys out and because of the drugs and users in the parking lot and property, I really appreciate that measure. The only downside is the rampant drug use and drug users in the parking lots and on the property. The police come through on a regular basis and I like to think that scares that element away. Were it not for their generous animal in my case cat allowance, I wouldn't

This location is failing. All of my items were pulled from my room while I was at work one day even tho Expedia reservation was paid ahead as always several more days. Young guy at front desk yelled at me he didn’t recognize my name! Another example of his poor knowledge is that he challenges prepaid online thru Expedia debit card purchases with company name on card and cancels stay leaving me without a room elsewhere. No vacancies I had to sleep in my car! I have stayed here several years.
