It was OK. We picked it because it had the nicest pool, only to discover it could not be used which was frustrating.

I liked the convenience of the motel as it was just off the highway. The restaurant was there and walking distance to other food outlets. I would definitely stay there again.

There is no restaurant, no cutlery in the room. Heating/cooling is very noisy . The strong cleaning smell dissipates with the windows open. Its not offensive.

Filty dirty, other than the bed sheets, everything else was grimy and old. Restaurant was closed so no dining. Too add insult to injury they charge $167 for a room that I would not let me pets live in. Clean up your act!
