The desk clerk was really nice. She was very patient and helped an elderly person who looked like she came off the street. The place had other good features such as location and I was able to pull right up to my room to park.

Hotel is dated although refreshed and very clean. Parking right outside the door is convenient but noisy and hotel is right on a major thoroughfare so lots of traffic noise. The two people at checkin and out were very nice.

It’s a quiet, clean, motel with friendly staff. The only thing is that some of the electricity was a bit glitchy in the room. On one side the bedside lamp and wall light wouldn’t turn on but honestly that didn’t affect the quality of our stay. If you’re looking for a simple place to sleep this is a great option.
