Lester was nice over the phone. I booked the room available online and he asked me was I really handicapped because he doesn't give those rooms out but saves them. I didn't think that was appropriate and he shouldn't ask anyone else that books the room they want and need. Upon check-in Raj was also nice. We encountered payment machine issues and he adequately handled the double payment and deposit. He also brought a remote to my room. Good location next to the highway and several eateries. Breakfast isn't worth mentioning and you shouldn't plan to get full or satisfied from the very limited options of bread, powdered eggs, sausage gravy, and 1 juice flavor. The lobby smelled really good but the rest of the building smells like old mold. I'd do another 1-night stay but with air freshener.

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!
