This is an older motel, but has been kept up well. Check-in was totally automated, but quick & easy. Management texted us check-in instructions that were very easy to follow. Rooms are small & needed a luggage rack for suitcase. No breakfast offered.

Though there are no smoking signs in the rooms, people clearly smoke here. Folks were when we arrived. Even if they do it outside, the smell lingers in the rooms. The sink is hard to turn on without going full blast and making everything wet.

It was way too expensive for what it was when we stayed there ($127 in July) but we had no other choice. The beds were comfortable enough. The tv didn't work properly so we went to bed early.

Well maintained and clean, looked like upgrades had been made. Well priced. No charge for pets and a nice bowl of doggie treats in the lobby. Self check in with automated key dispenser in lobby (quite unique)

The shower did not work. The AC did not work. The window did not work (open). The room was part OK, part really shabby, with hopelessly outdated and inconvenient features. I called to complain and was told the manager would call back. She did, but could not make any adjustment until she called and talked to the "owner". She never called back. Don't stay there. You have been warned.
