Room was clean which was the most important thing since we only stayed one night. Good value as it’s the cheapest vs other non-motels. However. The walls were not really sound-proof. Easily hear talking from next room even though they were not screaming. If you are a light sleeper you may want to consider another property.

Overall the property is very clean. Everything feels outdated though. The rooms furniture looks very used.The TV was very small on a large stand making it seem out of place. Appeared to be a 32 inch.
