This motel was better than I expected for what we paid for the night. Our room was clean but a bit outdated. It had a pretty terrible smell (not sure if it was smoke or what?). Looks like they are starting to renovate as our friends had the room next to us and it was newly renovated and very nice! The staff was nice!

Easy check in and was good for a short stay. We stayed while in between homes during a move. There’s not much in the surrounding area but we brought food and their fridge and microwave make it easy to manage.
