Poor

Lady at the desk was very nice. Motel is alittle run down. The heater in the bathroom did not work and was very dirty. Big cobweb above the Mirror (very disgusting). You should see outside the door was closed. Very hard to get warm with the wind blowing in. The heater sounded like a freight train when it started. Probably won't stay there again.

This motel room # 17 badly needs updating. The sink is stained badly, the toilet isn’t attached to the floor. The toilet paper holder is pulled out of the wall, the carpet is stained, and the coffee pot leaks. The manager at the front desk was very kind and helpful.

Terrible customer service

Well I told them that I couldn't come back due to an emergency and ask them to take my belongings out of the room and they said that they wouldn't do that and they would continue charging me until somebody could go and get it I live out of state and then when I did get my items back I'm missing my hard drive with every picture that me and my husband have had together. Not only that but one of the staff members said some very inappropriate things to a co-worker of mine when he went to pick up my items. At which time may I add they had already taken the items out of the room which is what I asked him to do in the first place and they refused simply to get more money from me.

Appreciated the "ground-floor" floor plan; too many new motels nowadays poke Expedia reserved people onto the 3rd floor in the back of the building somewhere (with no elevator). Pretty difficult if your handicapped or even just elderly. Interstate rooms are on the ground floor, you drive up to your door and unload, what could be more convenient. We called the office people due to our late arrival, they assured us there was no problem, they stayed and promptly did the check-in personally...
