The front staff was very accommadating and very helpful. The breakfast was decent since it was included in the price. Machine that gives you dark to light coffee, rotating menu. I had bacon, eggs, and pancakes one day and eggs gravy and sausage and pancakes. Truckers are often staying here as well. Small pool, hot tub, and small gym which I used for the treadmill. Place is very doable for the price and its a older facility so don't expect Egyptian 500 count thread sheets, lumpy bed.

Nothing was unique about the Motel because it was a deceitful advertisement of the place as a Hotel instead of a Motel. Not enough breakfast for whole stay duration period. Had to wait for limited food being prepared by rations. Last day of Sunday was even worse when we were told that the manager who wasn't on duty decided what breakfast to be served to people. Worse service ever, very poor, will NEVER recommend to anyone.
