This is a nice place to stay and I would recommend it to anyone. The only glitch was that while the wireless worked 100%, the internet was not available on the wireless most of the time. Because I rely on internet access a lot when I travel, this was a bit of an issue. I was able to use the hotspot in my car though, so everything worked out.

Our stay was amazing as usual. We found our room to close to the main entrance which is where orher guest were allowed to smoke cigarettes and weed which we smelled all night. The property is great except for this issue. Rate is wonderful and so is the owners! Would love to see a designated smoking area away from room windows.

Room was adequate but older furnishings. Hollow doors so you can hear noise from hallway.Bathroom had a bowed wall and trim with barely enough space to turn around in. But for the price of $57.00 per night you should expect something not to be perfect. It was typical of an Indian run motel.

Staff was helpful, room was clean. Missing light bulb in the bathroom, no hand towels, towels were very stained, no shampoo, no kleenex, no lotion, no in-room coffee, no coffee or breakfast, blankets had holes, no place to hang bath towels, no iron or ironing board, and i think I'll stop there. It's a decent place and even with all it lacks, for the price I'd stay again, I'll just be more prepared next time.

Honestly, when I arrived at this motel.. I immediately wanted to leave. I just got a very weird vibe from the place. I was so surprised it got such good reviews. There were some very odd people hanging around the place.. I felt very uncomfortable and unsafe. Then I got into my room and felt so claustrophobic. It was a tiny room. Some guys were giving each other a haircut outside, and I think people also live there. Such a strange place and vibe. I would never stay there again!! It's also in such a weird location.. right on an intersection. Yikes!!!!
