Guest reviews
What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“I loved my stay here. The rooms are huge. More than enough room for a family. A a walk in closet, counter, and spacious sleeping quarters. The staff is nice and animal friendly (the motel cats were amazing. Careful not to touch their toe beans though). Reasonably priced for such giant rooms.”
“I was visiting a friend who stayed there. The room has a lot of space to get around. Nice color flat screen tv. With quality picture. Clean, big front window, parking in front of your door. Microwave, fridge, big closet space..Laminated wood floor.. Bathroom has adequate space to move around. Close to stores, fast foods and restaurants. Even a bowling alley across the street. Very friendly manager and staff. I highly recommend this lodging site.”
“One of the things I live by is if you lower your expectations, a whole world of possibilites open up. This is a nice honest place to rest my head. I must have been assigned a recently remodeled/refreshed room. My mattress/bed is comfortable. I like that the room has hardwood floors for easy cleaning. And I like that the towels and linens have a slight 'bleach' odor. I have not had any trouble with ants or spiders like other guests have reported. A few quibbles: I'm 5'9" tall and I have to crouch to wash my hair in the shower. Some peeling paint in the bathroom. Oh, and like any cheap motel, there is no ball-room! (I'll be here all week. No really, I will be here all week!) This isn't the Ritz, or even the Holiday Inn, but for the money I'm paying I feel like I'm getting a good value.”
“The room itself was about as basic as could be but as I had planned to not spend any time there other than to sleep and shower; that didn't bother me at all. Because the building itself is older, the rooms are relatively large and come with a closet; they have been updated also. They also have good new AC units and newer TVs. Becky, her friend, and the pets are terrific as well!”
“I can truly say this place is great, the rooms are great, Becki the manager is beyond amazing because she's so willing to work with me and no other motel is ever willing to do that. My daughter love's her animals she says seeing her animals everyday makes her day better. I just really like the environment here compared to the way it was before. Way different atmosphere. Thank you Becki for being so caring and amazing”
