Great Staff.
I rated the property a 4 overall because of the friendly staff and clean, spacious rooms. The motel is on a busy street and early evening it was quite loud, but we didn't notice it much at night. The area around is okay with a few homeless nearby under a bridge. We walked to a nearby restaurant but would not do it when it got darker. This is on the outskirts of the official Old Town area.

My feeling was that it was on a very busy road Central Blvd and traffic noisy until 11 or so, but did get quiet finally. Place was clean, room was large and nice. Staff running the place went out of their way to be helpful. I would stay there again.

Enjoyed a really nice stay here with my children and sisters. We found a room that slept six comfortably. They offered free breakfast in the morning and we're super nice on check-in. It's an older facility but it was clean and quirky. We will definitely stay here again when we travel through again.

Clean budget motel
We chose this motel because of the high rating and the low price, but alas it turned out to be a "too good to be true" situation. I respect the owners and staff for offering a budget motel that is clean. But it was not an 8.4, more like a 6.0. Old, tired, worn out, and noisy! Our room faced the main street outside, and the traffic noise was very loud.

The only good thing was that the room was clean. The TV wouldn't turn on. The room was hopelessly outdated. Very noisy.

The staff was friendly and the bed was comfortable however the property is very rundown and in a very old and very noisy part of the city. The air conditioner was very loud however it helped to block out the street noise. The breakfast offered was minimal, the coffee was terrible. There were basically no dining options near the property. Not sure how this can be a Howard Johnson affiliate.

Not a great or even good choice. The area around the motel was sketchy at best. The staff were friendly but that cannot overcome the rundown conditions of the property.

Friendly staff, nice big room with comfortable bed. Some of the furniture is old and needs to be replaced. There was a metal base around the bed which made noise whenever you sat on the bed but sleeping was noiseless. Bathroom tub was very worn and needs replacement as well.
