Neither room we tried had plumbing options that were able to work with my wifes disability, but the front desk attendant was more than top notch with her assistance, even though we had to book with a different hotel. She is the reason the hotel gets two stars

Quiet, comfortable & clean

The staff was friendly. The room was clean & the bed was fairly comfortable. The place is a little run down, but you can tell they are trying to renovate it. It was a quiet weekend considering the motel is next to a busy expressway. The room felt a little damp for some reason.

The property was ok. We ended up on an outside corridor from the pictures online which felt less secure. Jamie at the front desk was exceptional! He was very kind, thoughtful and accommodating. He was the highlight of the stay!

This property would have potential if they painted the rooms and replaced the stained chairs. The location was great, it was within a bus station.
