Very friendly and professional staff!

I was able to get a good price through Hotels.com after car trouble. Bernard (?) greeted me and was very friendly and accommodating and Angela the manager had a heart of gold. She was very professional and kind to me and other customers. The property has been dramatically improved in the 4 months they have run the place. The exterior was painted recently to brighten the experience. New refrigerator with large frozen area; nice microwave; larger TV with direct TV and lots of channels. Clean towels; colorful sheets and comforter like you would have at home. Parked at your door. Two gas stations and restaurants a few minutes walk away. Safe, well lit, secure. All you needed in your very clean room. Yes it wasn’t perfect maybe; but clean and homelike feel and a low price and you could tell they cared and were improving the physical appearance. Angela and Bernard (i think) were delightful and instantly were my friends. They have a car repair guy that comes to the motel and pizza delivery available.

Staff at the front desk were amazing! Extremely friendly and accommodating. Unfortunately, that’s where the good experience ended. This is a very old motel that is in serious need of maintenance. I don’t even know where to begin. Smoke alarm was missing, dead bugs all over the walls, floor, sinks, tub, and furnishings, bathtub is missing hardware, room smelled smoky, broken and missing tiles, etc. Bed appeared to be clean and comfortable, and I guess that is what was important. Didn’t expect much for $59 to be honest.
