This place is older, but was nice and clean it's not fancy, but if you need a nice clean place to spend the night I would recommend it, and they have a gas station a block away and a Dollar general a block away Plus plenty of restaurants choose from at the exit

We experienced a fine manager. Very friendly and helpful. However, the motel is like I stayed in as a child in the 1950s. It was clean and served our purpose at a very low price.
