It was ok for the most part my only concern was that I couldn’t close my front window which led to me waking up in and out of sleep due to traffic late at night

The staff is very helpful and friendly. I like that the parking lot has cameras and the front desk has a screen to monitor them. One late morning my husband checked to see if there was coffee in the lobby but there wasn’t. He turned around to leave and the front desk person told him to wait, and he made him coffee. They care about service and it shows. The room was great and larger than most.

The front desk man was nice and friendly. The room had no remote to tv he fixed it right away. The ice machine broke told other man working he looked at it shrugged his shoulders and walked away. There was a refrigerator in the room that got my beverage cold. The motel is old and needs upgrading. Pillows old, linen clean but worn. The light kept flickering on and off. Bathroom shower had hair and mold. No ice bucket no soap or toiletries. Prostitutes using rooms. Nope never again left early 0530. Just uncomfortable situation.
