Under new ownership and they are friendly and accommodating. They are busy updating and painting and you can tell the difference. I will be staying there again when I'm in the area.

Liked: Cleanliness
This is a reasonably priced, decent condition clean , staff is not unfriendly but not super welcoming. The expedia website said breakfast included which was a factor in our choice for cost and travel time, now we have to spend time and money to go to a restaurant. If i had known this upfront, i would've picked a different hotel.

Excellent stay for the Price. Accommodating owners

This stay provided everyhing we needed. Clean, no carpet(love no carpet, great shower with wonderful water temperature. Wonderful TV selection for movies. Coffee provided. Pool available but didn’t use it. They also have laundry for $3 a load. A grocery store, Walmart, food options close by. The downtown is quaint. The couple who runs the motel are so nice. We decided we needed an extra day to stay. Our first night was booked through a third company, so the couple gave us a less charge for the second night

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This is a pretty basic motel, with coffee and creamer in the lobby, and empty vending machines. My room was quiet and comfortable, in spite of being opposite the ice machine. I only heard it operate once. The polyester sheets were amazingly comfortable, and the shower and sink worked well. The toilet seat had some sort of plastic covering that was peeling, and would best be replaced, but it was clearly very clean. Wood composite flooring also contributed to the overall feeling of cleanliness.

I guess you get what you pay for! Price was low but facility needs work. Hairdryer switch was broken, fluorescent light over sink look a VERY LONG time to come on, trim along floorboard across from toilet needs repair. Beds were fine and we knew there’d be no breakfast so that was no surprise.

There was an unpleasant odor in the lobby and no air conditioning in the hallway, but the AC in my room worked well. The desk clerk was business-like--don't expect to receive a warm welcome. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. I appreciated the mini-fridge but the microwave didn't work. Security at the first-floor window consisted of a couple pieces of wood jammed into the track. There's a McDonalds just across the highway that opens at 5 am, which was convenient for getting a morning cup of coffee. I selected this hotel because i just needed a bed for one night and the price was right. You get what you pay for.

The rooms were clean but had a very strong disinfectant & musty smell. The grass around the hotel was very overgrown. Could feel the springs in the mattress, so it wasn't comfortable to sleep on. The owners were very accommodating & helpful in finding a way for our group to watch the baseball game together.
