We found bedbugs around 10pm and the motel office closes at 9pm so there was no one to assist us. This is awful customer service and a safety concern for the property and all the occupants. We had to leave in the middle of the night and drive to a brand name hotel and pay again, where we knew we would has assistance should anything happen. I expect a full refund.

An older property that could use some updating. It was VERY clean, though. There was a definite lack of plug-ins and the one by the bed didn't work.

It was clean but tired. AC was great for the weather. Staff was friendly. Also did not like or know about the credit card hold which was more than the cost of one night’s stay. Probably would not stay again.

The garbage smell when we first pulled into the parking lot was awful. The rooms were clean so kudos to housekeeping. The surroundings were run down including the black asphalt was pulling off on the stairs and outside of the rooms. Rooms are dingy and outdated.
