You get what you pay for to a certain extent. This was a serviceable low-end motel with old bones that showed through everywhere. It lacked the many conveniences one takes for granted at standard hotels. Ice is only available in the office, which is closed 11 pm - 9 am, and it's a small ice machine so if someone fills up their chest before you then you are out of luck. Similarly coffee is only available after staff arrives at 9 am. However, the staff person was friendly.

Super nice young man checked me in and was very considerate of the fact that I was very tired and went out of his way to give me a room downstairs without someone in the room above me. Very considerate!

This is an old-style, standard motel. Fine for 1 or 2 night stopover. Staff is helpful.

An okay stay which served its purpose. Nothing really wrong with the room, but it's a bit overpriced for the quality and location. The property is very dated & desperately needs a facelift - that was the smallest shower I've ever seen. Also could have done without the noisy train coming through at 1.30am...

When I show up to the location it was barricade by police and coroner of premises. So I don’t have a chance to stay. Took 45 minutes for Expedia to respond and get me another place to stay. They need to confirm the place wasn’t open.

Such an old hotel. Probably was a nice place in the 50’s. No electrical plug in bathroom. Guess the picture of signage should have warned me it was outdated. Safety was a huge concern, but thankfully no issue with that.

Older hotel, but the room was very well maintained and cleaned. The attendant was friendly and answered my questions. I would stay there again.

Check in was easy and room was waiting when we arrived about 4:00. Property is dated. Old swimming pool is empty and fenced off. Looks like a storage area in the middle of the parking lot. Room was renovated and clean with a few amenities (clean fridge, microwave, shampoo, soap, etc.) Flat panel tv was new and channel selection was extensive. Check-out time was 10:30 am, which is a bit unusual. All-in-all, would book again.
