Good basic motel. It was clean and safe. No ice, food or anything more than WiFi and basic stuff like towels. But for the price it was fine.

Covenant, not luxury.

Our only problem was that the Pillows were flat, but this little place was clean and warm, had hot water and was convenient for our needs.

I stayed here when attending a recent HS choir reunion. Overall I found it clean and the owners were very friendly and helpful. I don't mind that the place is very old, but there are things that need to be kept to up like grouting the bathroom and floor tile. Also the walls are very thin, so I could hear the alarm go off of the drunken guy next door for over an hour at 5 am on two mornings.

Nothing fancy

If you want a luxurious hotel, don’t go here. If you want a clean room with a hot shower that won’t break the bank, then this is the place. Older ma and pop that’s close to the interstate. In room coffee. Didn’t check the Wi-Fi cause I use my hot spot. Tv was good.
