Horrible area. The clerk sits behind a caged window to check you in. The reviews were very misleading otherwise we would never have reserved a room here. We never even went in the room because the area was so bad and the outside of the motel was very dirty and run down. We asked to cancel and Of course we didn’t get a refund of our $134 but we just chalked it up to a bad mistake. I’m guessing the reviews were fake because there is no way that place got the good reviews it had legitimately. What a disaster this experience was. 😡

Nice family run Motel. Clean room, huge nice new shower! The bed and sheets were SO SOFT and COMFY. The motel looks to have a nice, new roof and clean parking lot. The owner offered to put a patio table and chairs outside our door if we needed it. Very nice. We appreciate seeing families taking on the burden of purchasing older motels and renovating them into nice, clean places to stay. Very enjoyable.
