We stayed here on a cross country trip for one night, and feel that it was exactly what we needed: something cheap, convenient, and clean for a one night stay. Heavy trucker presence if that makes travelers uncomfortable, but all guests were polite and quiet.

It is situated in an odd area but it was fairly quiet. I stayed on the first floor. The room was very clean and spacious. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I was there for three nights and would stay again. The breakfast could use a little more variety but they did have hot options. Good value for the price.

The bed was hard as a rock. Felt like i slept on a box spring. The shower curtains had mold extremely bad. I told them. And they didn't care. I will never go back.

I don't like to spend a lot of money for rooms that I'm just sleeping in on a road trip so I have definitely had my share of sketchy motel rooms. I was very pleasantly surprised at the cleanliness and friendliness of the staff and how accommodating they were to us and our dogs. If you need a clean and safe place to stay for a road trip this is the place for you!

Not worth the price
I hotel was old and dingy. Of the 4 lamps in my room only 1 of them worked. When I came out for breakfast the employee was sleeping on the couch. The breakfast area had 4 tables where only 1 of them had chairs to sit in. The other three had their chairs upside down on the tables. The floor was visibly dirty from spills.
