Pretty good stay

Generally the hotel was clean and the staff was friendly. My only issues were the breakfast was minimal and the guest laundry that was indicated by signage on the wall didn't exist. Overall a pretty good stay.

I paid much more with Expedia than booking direct, per the hotel manager when I arrived. What is the point of using Expedia... AND it would not let me use my key cash so that was frustrating.

Minimal but comfortable

The room seemed clean enough and the beds were semi-comfortable. There were ample pillows. There were 2 of us, but only 1 washcloth, 2 hand towels, and 2 bath towels for our 2 day stay. It is minimal as far as amenities go, but there was an iron, a fridge, and microwave. The motel was close to everything...restaurants, gas stations, walmart, coffee houses etc. We were comfortable and happy for the very reasonable price.

Room was so small you could barely move around and the entire room was sticky from humidity. It made the floors feel wet. The staff did not speak very good English though they tried. The guy who checked us in was rather unfriendly though. Bathtub had no slip mat in the tub and no rails on the wall. Felt unsafe.

Needs an overhaul

If you’re just wanting a basic place to stay for night, this might do but clearly this place needs major overhaul. Management is from another country originally and maybe the standards are a little bit different. We didn’t eat breakfast because it was only cereal and toast and there wasn’t even milk for your coffee just coffee creamer.

The room was spacious and clean, quiet and centrally located. The owners were very polite and helpful except we had a problem with the drain in the sink and tub that they did try to repair. There was also several electrical outlets that wasn’t working in the room. The bed was comfortable and clean. It was nice for the price and would stay again in a pinch.
