We were traveling on a budget and this place was perfect. Definitely not fancy, but it was great for the occasion. It was clean & comfortable. It had a mini fridge, coffee & coffee maker, nearby ice machine, hair dryer, iron, etc. I would consider staying again.

Quick trip

Great price for a quick last minute trip, definitely wouldn't be my #1 choice. Although location is ok but rooms are outdated. Owner did say he is remodeling all rooms and making updates to the hotel, definitely will forward to that.

It’s a decent stay for what you pay for. It’s clean and you get a safe place to sleep for the night - that’s enough for me.

It's an old motel, and that's fine, but it's short-staffed by family who weren't at the counter and the office is closed. You have to text them and they get back to you in an hour. The bed was nice, but the rooms do not have A/C and that means no fan for noise. Normally okay, but when there is a crying baby in the next room at midnight, some white noise makes a difference. Like most cheap places, they paint over crumbling structure instead of repairing and replacing it. It's close to the Harvey's concert venue, which is the only thing going for it.
