friendly front desk, not sure why I have to pay for cleaning if we left place as clean when we left as when we arrived. what is the room rate for? upon arrival there was a noodle dried onto the living area counter top which surely indicates not cleaned prior to arrival. They should put rug either outside entry or directly inside as it had rained and feet wet upon each arrival we made back to the room. MAJOR HATE SHOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY CLEANING FEE ON TOP OF RATE!

Noisy. A major 4 way intersection close by where it seems like every racer boy has to take off so everyone can here them. Noise from room above easily passed through our ceiling. Sounded like someone herding elephants up there. Room was clean, beds were comfortable and area surrounding the motel was clean and safe.

Very disappointed after our brief stay here. The reviews feel a bit misleading after having stayed here. The bedding was stained/dirty in multiple places (pictures attached) and the room smelled like cigarettes. Considering we were charged a cleaning fee, I was at least expecting clean sheets/bedding. For the price they're charging per night, this is not worth the money at all. We will not be staying here again.
