The whole experience was terrible. I noticed an extra pending charge before I checked out. I inquired at the front desk about it. I was told it would fall off after checking out. 5 days later and my bank told me to contact the property because it still was showing pending for the second charge. Only after contacting corporate, it finally got released. Also the breakfast was not very good. Didn’t even have muffins. Most places have muffins and bagels and cereal. I will NOT be staying here again.

We were traveling with 2 family members in wheelchairs. The room had no where to hang clothes so we hung them on the shower Rod. The beds were too high for the handicapped persons to get into, had to help them get in and out of bed. Cleanliness of room fair, could do better. Table tops were sticky and no tissues in the room. Ot a good place for handicapped.

Location is good but the hotel is really old! the rooms are not very clean. Our room had a strong smell of cigarettesץ They apologized but could not move us to a different room. Breakfast was OK.

A bit worn, but absolutely clean and fairly comfortable. Great customer service from the front desk. This was our second visit here, and we will likely be back.

This is an old-school motel set up….you can park directly in front of your room.
The good stuff
Feels like a throwback to family vacation in the early 70s! The doors and locks feel secure and the window is fully by the drapes for privacy- no gaps. The cosmetic aspects have all been updated - nice vinyl plank floors, fresh paint, newish furniture including AWESOME firm mattresses! Such a very comfortable bed! USB plugs on the bedside lamp. The room was clean. The WiFi was free, fast and a strong signal.are very near to every restaurant or service you might need.
Less good
The bathroom area floor was soft/bouncy/clearly unsupported in a way that you find in old homes that had long term water damage. I elected not to shower because I really was uneasy with the floor….and gingerly sat upon the toilet! One could literally feel the floor dip when you stepped.
Overall- we arrived late, and left first thing - and this place offered us a no-frills option for much less than pretty much all of the other options in town. And the beds were so comfortable that I would probably even choose it again in similar circumstances.

My stay at this hotel was disappointing. Upon arrival, I encountered long, black hairs scattered on the bed, pillowcase, and bathroom towel, providing an unpleasant experience. The dirty toilet and stains on the refrigerator handle were hard to overlook. The pillow, aside from being stained, had hairs inside. The dirty bedding added to the overall feeling of an unclean place. In summary, this experience fell short of basic expectations for hygiene and comfort, and I would not recommend this hotel to other travelers.

I believe this a motel where many are permanent residents. When I walked in to my room at 9pm, guy next door nearly naked standing outside his door smoking weed. Watching me. A tad unnerving. Sounded like a large gang of people not far from my room outside laughing, just loud in general. Not a place I’d want to bring my kids for the night stay.

Took a spontaneous snow day ski trip. Had to get front desk to get a clean blanket and enough towels. Rooms are small but convenient easy in and out with one story motel.

Room was tired and when we turned on heat/ fan unit, it smelled like urine.
A little noisy but not too bad.

The toilet tissue inside the bathroom was very moist as if it had been dropped in the toilet and sit to dry. The unit was cold. I wouldn’t recommend it was a three out of 10.

Staff was friendly and efficient. Toast, instant oatmeal, dry cereal for breakfast. Several restaurants and a Kroger in walking distance. The light by the door number was so bright I couldn’t read the number from the car. Furniture, woodwork and outlets are in need for rehab. However worth the price.

I'm willing to tolerate sacrificing all of the luxury hotel perks for an inexpensive room without a view. But a MUST HAVE for me is CLEANLINESS. The room reeked of smoke, there was a sticky substance on the floor, the bedding covers had burn marks and stains. The photos are VERY deceiving. All of the guests in the section of the hotel we stayed in we all smoking right outside their doors, which were left open for their pets to come in and out as they pleased. I won't be staying here again. Pay the extra $10-15 for cleanliness and peace of mind.

Pictures are very deceiving. Empty condom box and witnessed a drug sale all in 2 min of being there. Needless to say we didnt stay. We were traveling with our motorcycle on a trailer and did not feel safe there.

I accidentally booked a smoking room and I am a non-smoker. The desk clerk was kind enough to change my room unofficially That being said there were holes in the wall, and the security lock was broken clear off the wall I put a chair in front of the door, slept very uneasily, and checked out by 6 AM. This is my second stay here and the first one was far better. I’m not really sure what’s going on. Given the kindness and generosity of the desk clerk, it was unfortunate that the room was so sub par.

This was a very clean room, showing it's age in the bathroom, but a bargain for us. The woman at checkin was friendly and very helpful. The morning continental breakfast room was also very clean.
