Room and property were generally clean, but I had 3 complaints that I relayed to the front desk upon check out (Room 230): 1. The bathroom sink was badly clogged 2. The humidity of the room was very high, even with the AC on 3. The room had a strong odor, like someone spilled cologne on the floor

Very friendly staff. Breakfast was supposed to be served till 9:00 am, but there were few selections when we went at 8:30 am. The room we stayed in was accessible and had an odor. Also the AC didn’t seem to be working very well when it was 95 degrees outside. The motel was fully booked, so that probably had a lot to do with the AC not working very well also.

This place is a gem. My family is on a long road trip. We’ve stayed in hotels at several price points. This place is a value for sure!! It is not super fancy. It has modern decor. It is clean and well-maintained. Beds are comfortable. Staff are friendly. It’s quiet.Coffee, tea hot chocolate were available in the evening. Even the laundry facilities were no charge.

From the condition of the hotel you would guess it is 10-15 years old but it is actually only a couple years old. Beds are super comfy and A/C was cold. The bottom of the pool needs a deep cleaning it has a layer of debris that is obvious when just looking at it. Seems like a super easy thing to clean so must be some lazy managers at this location.

Uncomfortable beds

The room was very clean. The bed and pillows were extremely uncomfortable. The pillows were so bad, I slept without one and used a towel for a pillow. The bed had no support to it, and I sunk in as soon I laid down
