Rooms have been recently renovated and are clean and had everything I needed. It was quiet also. Staff at front desk as well as Maintenance folks were great to deal with. So overall good value. Outside/Grounds could use some sprucing up. And missed having fridge having freezer compartment to freeze my ice-pak. I enjoyed my stay.

It would be nice to have a breakfast for the price you pay. Even a quick grab and go breakfast would be better than nothing.

The rooms are dated, a little brighter paint and some pictures on the wall would make it appear more comfy. However, the room was very clean, with a microwave and fridge, good size TV, tub enclosure was new and the shower itself was really good. Bed was very clean and very comfortable. I only gave a 4 rating because its an older motel.

The room was big and clean, it looked recently renovated. One bizarre thing was there is nothing on the walls of the room, not a single piece of art. It made the room echo a little, not a big deal but noticeable.
