Melissa

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The desk manager was great. He called when we hadn’t checked in by 10:00 to confirm we were still coming and provided food recommendations. The room was clean, beds comfortable. Stayed here on parents weekend and while rates were high for this property, they did not jack up the rates nearly as much as many others. An older family owned place, good choice for an economy motel only 3 miles from campus.

Overrated

The room was fine, but it was absolutely bare bones. There was only one chair! And no coffee, shampoo, or clock. I understand this is a motel, but when the average rating was over 7, I was expecting something a bit different. The bathroom was spectacular and bed comfortable, so I would recommend this place, just bring your own amenities!!

Not bad at all

It's not the Fritz but it's clean and on the cheaper side of town. Sure it could use some updating like the lighting in the bathroom for us older folks but it had everything else I needed for the week. I will use them again for sure!

We stayed here for a fishing tournament. The owner was very helpful. Had a place where we could park the boat under cameras and plug it in. He volunteered to keep an eye on it so we didn't have to pull it to go eat that night. Rooms were well kept. Much better than dealing with some big hotel.

Given the area and outside appearance, the hotel was a pleasant surprise. It isn’t brand new and modern, but everything worked as it was supposed to and it was clean. Considering other Hotels in which I stayed in this price range, this one was much appreciated.
