Super cheap. Almost worth it. I kept having my key card stop working. Really frustrating when I was trying to leave and there was nobody on site to help. I had to call an off-site worker who took 20 minutes to come fix my key and I was a bit delayed on getting back to my roadtrip. He was super apologetic and cool about it, but it was still frustrating. I’ll probably be back but will consider another motel if the rates are similar.

Mandy, at the front desk, was wonderful! The room was very clean. Other than a few mishaps in the room (the shower head fell off and there wasn't any soap in the bathroom) our stay was fine. It is quiet, and amazing for the price. I will definitely stay here again!
