Spotless room with everything you need for an overnight stay. Who cares if the property is old? It has been exceptionally maintained and everything in the rooms work flawlessly. It’s obvious that the owners take great pride in their establishment. There is no reason to overpay at a corporate chain hotel when you can just stay at TL!

The property is an older motel, but extremely clean. The gal that checked us in was a really pleasant. I appreciated her calling to see what time we expected to be there and doing some of the check-in early.

The person who handles check in was very thorough and very helpful. She listened to what I needed and made suggestions for where I might find things here in Norman. She was probably the best check in person I have come across in my travels. The room is clean, quiet and comfortable – I couldn’t ask for anything more.

Hidden gem in Norman. Affordable and good location. Although the surrounding area is not very nice and the motel could be updated, it was very clean and well kept with everything in working order. Would stay here again. Staff was lovely and accommodating.
