Our room was in need of some superficial repairs to the walls and bathroom. Only provided single ply toilet paper. Wall lights were subpar and grate on window unit A/C was broken. Quiet and accommodating on extending our stay/ Room was fine for the cost charged

The staff is only worried about taking your money. I have an ESA and even though my ESA is covered by the ADA, I was charged an extra $15 per night for my ESA. I would only recommend this place if you are in need of short-term housing.

Definitely not a queen bed. Pillows and sheets were too basic. And towels were small along with only one washcloty and no hand soap. No coffee in lobby at checkout. Positives- Quiet off freeway and pet friendly! Safe area to park !

Disliked: Amenities
If you're in for a quick sleep and get out early, it's sufficient. Something wrong with the shampoo, bugs in tub and smells like it's not cleaned properly. But, the part that bugged us the most was, there were only 3 rooms occupied on our side of building and the owner puts us all right next to each other. Our neighbors were loud. No need for that.

Nice & cost affective

My daughter & I stayed for one night. It is an old motel, but it was very clean & comfortable. My only complaint was there wasn't enough wash cloths for 2 people, even though it was booked for 2 guests. If you're not looking for fancy, then it is a decent place to stay.
