Mel was very nice lady, helped anyway she could for things to do for our son’s birthday! Room was very very clean, very quiet. Will stay here again and again!
This is an older motel, but the rooms are kept clean. The customer service was phenomenal. A very good value, I will stay again.

Clean and comfy
The hotel clerk met us with our registration and key at the car. Very friendly! Room was clean, beds were comfy, A/C blew very cold. Great stay if you don’t need super modern or updated decor.
Curbside check in was great. Staff was very friendly and pleasant. Best check in experience ever! An older hotel, but being kept up. Our room was super quuet!

Very clean and comfortable rooms. Excellent customer service. Very reasonably price. A bit older property and they appear to be working on repairs. Best suggestion I have is upgrades in mattresses would be awesome!
It looks like this place is under new management. The grounds have seen better days, but it appears they are working to fix the place up. There’s a great looking pool but it was empty when we visited. The buildings have pretty murals on them which was a pleasant surprise. There was no daily cleaning service, but anything we wanted/needed could be requested or placed outside our door for clean replacement. The kitchenette with fridge/freezer was very useful during our 4-night stay. The hotel is inexpensive but it has good reviews - which is why I picked it. I felt like it was a great value for the price and would stay here again if I’m ever in Norman.

Cheap hotel so you get what you pay for. It is clean, good location, & lady who checked us in was very friendly.
They even do car side check in which was a nice touch.
