I frequently stay at this motel while traveling for work, and I have nothing but positive things to say about it. I adore the setting. My stay is always enjoyable, and the staff at the motel is great to work with. Very accommodating, and booking is simple. Five stars for sure!!

I don't all the hotels and motels that I have stayed in all the hotels and motels
I would say this one was OK. Aside from there being blood in the shower and under the faucet by the wall it wasn't such a bad stay we had our privacy , or any interruptions whatsoever during our stay at the local eateries are amazing and so convenient to walk to

This is the worst motel I’ve ever been too. I’ve came from out of town and just wanted to rest. The whole room is disgusting. The bed sheets were really dirty and there were hairs all over the bed you can tell the bedsheets haven’t been changed

It is what it is. WiFi was pretty decent. No connectivity issues. Television did its job without issues. Shower curtains couldn’t keep water from spilling towards sides. Some extra towels would have been nice to have.

There was many instances of old dried snot on the wals, did not like that i had to go to the office and have them unlock my door each time. I'm sure tho, they've had a chance to fix this

The people running the office tried scamming me. Saying I didn't have anything from expedia and wanted to charge me more. Even with showing them my booking from expedia. They ended finally accepted the expedia booking but wanted to round up to the nearest dollar in their favor. The room didn't have hot water.
