Like all the other reviews say, the property is little dated, but it is an excellent place to stay for the night, bed sheets were nice and clean, the place is smack dead in the middle of town. Location is perfect. Staff was friendly. Easy check-in and easy checkout. Would definitely stay again.

Mostly good. Quick check in. Air Conditioning and fridge worked good. Beds comfy enough. Adequate floor space. A few bugs flying around. Beds made clunky noises when moving. Toilet flush switch was loose and hard to flush. The table next to the bed had large food stain that i had to wash off on arrival.

When you pay extra for a 3rd person why dont you have towels enough for 3? I had to go get more for our use. No elevator. Room interior repairs were poor quality. Painting, walls with damage, toilet seat needs replaced.

The property advertised having "squeaky-clean" rooms or something to that effect, and both my wife and I felt it lived up to this advertisement. Nothing fancy, but clean and affordable.

For an older motel, it is in excellant condition. The tub was better caulked than mine at home or any other motel I stayed at in the past year.

We chose this hotel for its price. For what we paid, it's good value. The hotel is very dated, and nothing fancy, but perfect for our one-night stopover. We would definitely consider staying here again.
