Very comfortable bed but no elevator. As an elderly guest, the shower was not safe and shampoo dispensers very hard to use. I could not get my bags up the stairs at all, but finally found someone to help. Breakfast was basic and the room sparse. Older motel, not updated and with a strong “motel” smell. Parking for handicapped close to the door but stairs were difficult. Not much for the price.

Quality Inn 2.25 Star hotel

Parking was great and overall the hotel for the price was clean. A/C and heat both worked, shower was a bit iffy with the shower head going in and out of the wall. But we were here to visit family so we didn't spend a ton of time in the room. The double rooms are actually quite small for an older hotel.

This hotel is on the older side, (38 years old), but it has most of the amenities one wants in a budget hotel. The staff are friendly and helpful. In our room there was a microwave, and mini fridge with a freezer. Be sure to bring your USB C adapter for your devices because there aren’t any USB ports, just regular outlets. The entryway and bathroom have sensor lights which I found helpful. There is an Italian restaurant next to the hotel, but it’s closed on Sunday and Monday so plan accordingly. The warm breakfast is good. They serve scrambled eggs, home fries and bacon. As well as cereal, breads, yogurt and make your own waffles. The tv had plenty of channels to choose from. I recommend staying here if you need a quick place to sleep and relax.

The property needs a remodel old furniture in the rooms, newer tubs and shower but not finished . No plugs for the bath tub drain. The pool was pretty dirty at the bottom , but I would say it’s ok to stay but I would not recommend

Nice motel and friendly staff. It was hard to find in the dark/nighttime, as it is located in a residential neighborhood, not near a lot of other motels/restaurants.

One night stay, just passing through. Hotel is an odd mix of new and old. Some tired carpet, broken woodwork, and new shower tub surrounds. Would not stay again.
