Good

The staff were nice. But the first room they gave me the window didn't close. I asked for a different room, and its window didn't close either. The third room had a window that closed but the latch was a bit flimsy. I still didn’t feel totally safe when the door chain was dangling on one screw. The parking lot was totally torn up and the trash bin outside the room was overflowing with beer cans. There was no ice. I think maybe they're remodeling? I would check on that before booking. I felt a little ripped off with the price I paid given the condition of the place.
Front desk gentleman was very friendly and helpful.
The facility was in very rough condition--from the parking lot to our room. It was a clean room but I can't say I would stay again.

They offer breakfast, but they only provide one pot of coffee. It wasn't enough.
It was much better than I expected for a 2-star level motel. More amenities than most accommodations in that price range. Good choice of breakfast items. My room looked quite updated.
