3 of a 4 night stay with no issues

Down there when the flood happened and the entire city closed down. There was nothing that the motel could do. Went back 5 days later to retrieve luggage. Motel manager came within 15 minutes to open our room once we found someone who knew his phone number. No issues with stay, we just happened to be there during a disaster.

It was an older motel but rooms remodeled. It had a second floor but no elevator. That made it very hard for us going to the room and going down. I have bad knees but we did ok. The overall stay was ok.

We were pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness of this hotel. We booked very last minute because of a storm and flat tire and our only option was a smoking room. It was actually fresher than some nonsmoking hotels. Staff was friendly, easy check-in and convenient parking.

Room was fine. The toilets need some attention, feels like sitting on floor. They are very low, with only door knob or trim to hold on to to get up.

I wish it had more lights in the room, and we even had to plug in the ones that were in there. It had an old thrift store smell. The bed was comfortable. The room next to us was so noisy. It was a so--so place to stay, however, we won't be back.
