This is not a bad hotel, the comforter on the bed takes you bad to the 80s so it has that nostalgic charm, but the place is very clean and rooms are in a great renovate condition new paint, and so on. Bathrooms are nice and big and clean as well. dont let the exterior of this place fool you, for a motor inn, it is 8.5/10

Ok for the night

They said the door "is a little sticky". No, it’s a big problem. Every time opening and closing the door was a major hassle. Staff were friendly and helpful.

Bed was warped, hard, and really, really old. Holes in the paper thin walls. Windows didn't close fully, neither did the door. No towels. They charge a lot and are an ultra cheap hotel. Really wish I'd paid the extra $30 for the one down the road.
