Even charging $10 per night to my companion “the service dog” As cleaning charge. Room was dirty, toilet paper was handed on check-in. However there was nothing in the room, only two sets of hand and bath towels. No blankets, only a thin sheet and very light bed cover. Around 11pm, power went off, then outage afterwards. No heater, no lightings, moreover no announcement for emergency situation. Frozen snowy weather outside, needed to wrap ourselves with clothes. No one at the office to conduct the awful situation. Checked out early to get out from icy room. Every hotel website should notify of this fact to all costumers.

Nice motel

If you are not looking for a 5 star accommodations but just a place to crash for a night, this is a great motel for the money, friendly staff, fast check in, clean bed and hot shower with nice pressure. Mini fridge and microwave in the room. No frills and slightly aged decor. I only needed a room for a night during a roadtrip from CA to OK, and the location is very convenient when driving on I-40, will use again.

Perfect for the $$$

If you’re looking for fancy, this is not for you. It suited my needs after traveling 600 miles. I just needed a place to crash. Checkin lady was super sweet. It is a bit noisy.

The room was Spartan but clean. The AC works well, the parking lot could use a little work to give the place a cleaner look but the staff was friendly and very helpful. The bed was very comfortable. The room was very affordable and I would stay here again.

Not the best

The room was fairly comfortable, but floors and furniture were very dusty. There were not extra towels. We only had three towels for five people. It was clearly an old property but not badly maintained except for cleanliness.

Grateful for a Great spot!

When I arrived, the Lady accommodated my request to check in an hour early for just $5-more. She was kind and gave me a clean quiet room. The room was spacious and very clean. Comfortable. The door locks could use replacement, but that's the ONLY thing I had a small issue with. The bed was comfortable and the TV worked fine This motel is a GOOD VALUE for the price and is close by shopping and a few restaurants. Even to go to fancier restaurants, was a mere 8 minute drive over the tracks and under a bridge. I WILL return here on my way to and from New Mexico. Ty.💯
