Room was clean and a good place to stay for a week on a budget. The area around the room, not the best. That wasn’t a problem though, bunch of bars within driving distance and Ubers were relatively cheap to go drinking all over town.

A cute redone motel with nice beds and gated parking. But the room was tiny and the walls thin - I don’t know if I would stay again with a teen.

Watch your step
This motel was ok. It was a small room. Check your email because you check in with it and do not see anyone at all. The really bad part is that the metal steps have been painted with a thick coat of slippery paint. It rained while we were there and my wife and I both fell and hurt ourselves badly. They need to fix this.

Bus stop out the front was very handy, beds were comfortable, these were the pros. The cons include a bathroom door that has to be rehung constantly, one chair, tiny room for (supposedly) four people.

We really enjoyed our stay at this motel. When we walked in there were friendship bracelets and a welcome card from the staff! Very personable. The room was a little small for the 4 of us, but for the price for the weekend it wasn't too bad.

This was a last minute property due to a cancellation from another property. The room was clean and management was very helpful. My family felt safe there. Since we were in a room next to the street it did get noisy.
