Called up to book a room for my wife as she was caught in the extreme weather and having to stay in the car. They checked the room and got it cleaned early and got her checked in and out of the weather so quickly. They were excellent to her and our pup she was staying with. So friendly and helpful have stayed there before will stay again.

The entire experience was really good!! Nice friendly staff that made you feel very welcome. The room was very clean and quiet. It was very affordable, compared to many in the area. Right beside a "Rickie's all Day Grill", which is very convenient. Would definitely recommend this spot and would for sure stay here again!!!

Very nice upgraded motel. The highway may sound loud from the parking lot, but the upgraded windows keep the sound out at night. It's also single floor, meaning no noise from rooms above.
