Staff is great and the room is very clean. Very comfy King size bed. Only thing I found strange is there is no place to hang clothes (no bar with hangars). But for the money this place is a no brainer. Stayed two nights and will return when I'm needing a motel room.

The stay was fine until the day after I checked out. The Motel clerk apparently thought that I had gone back home to Oregon to that

Everything about this hotel was great the staff, air conditioning, heating, good bed and tv, a fully functional bathroom. All the pictures online looked good and in real life it was. I also think it was exceptional to see that they had solar renewable energy. I highly recommend this place.
