Ol' Gramps Ain't Right
The woman at the reception desk always had a friendly smile when I came by at night to have a new doorpass made so I could get into my room where I left the old doorpass. The landscaping is nice!

4/10 Fair

We had a family suite with 2 bedrooms & kitchen. Rooms were clean. Beds were too tight for 2 adults. Kitchen was ok, big stove, fridge and microwave - clean, but there were not clean or enough utensils to cook- we have food allergies and would prefer to make our own food where possible. Front desk was very cheerful and helpful

Slept great!
Wonderful customer service. Cleanliness very good. Room features- no hot water or tub, and wasn’t given WiFi login. Overall, better than other budget hotels in the area.

This property is a great value. It’s clean, roomy enough and we’d stay there again. The owners are renovating some of the rooms and the outdoor pool which is one of the larger hotel pools I’ve ever seen. When the pool’s renovation is completed, it will be a nice addition to this motel.

10/10 Exceptional

The staff was great. They seem to be renovating the rooms. I was on a 10 day road trip that included 5 different hotel stays. This property had the best bed in my opinion. The room itself is not luxurious but it is very comfortable. The only negative i have is that the shower space is small and not well lite.
