Paasing through

Staff was accomodating. Received a room change as carpet was wet and room was musty. Under nee management. Second room was clean. Fan/heater in bathroom is nice feature. Microwave, mini frig, and coffee maker in room. Could improve curb appeal. Overall room was nice for the price. Hopefully, with continued improvements it will be a nice little place to stay.

The front office staff was super nice and helpful. The room was older, but clean. The location allowed us to walk the downtown and visit their shops. There was casinos too, if that's your gambit.

Stained chairs and floor. Did not stay the night. Opened the door and saw the condition and left. Did not talk to onsite staff; did not want retaliation since they had my card on file.

The property is under new management. Overall the room was good. My only issues were the blankets were too thin and the heater was insufficient as it was still getting very cold at night. The management is in the process of making any needed improvements that are reported.👍

Billy is wonderful, he truly helped make the stay great. Thank you so much for everything. The breakfast is a nice selection, loved the sandwich. WiFi works in room, but definitely is a lot better closer to the front of room/towards office where router most likely is. Did not work well enough for a laptop but worked great streaming shows on my iPad. Nice little motel that gives you exactly what you paid for.
