We had a hair dryer that didn't work. We told them 3 times. Finally went to Walmart and bought one. The breakfast was hardly breakfast. No creamer for coffee. One empty, other didn't work. After 4 days, expected it could have been replenished. Housekeeper was awesome. Room kept clean.

It was ok for one night. I will not stay there again. I didn't like that I had to checkin outside at a booth after 10:00pm. This tells me the area may be a little sketchy.

Great price point

Staff was friendly- rooms and motel itself were older, but it was decent. Great for the price point and everything smelt and felt clean. It was a business trip, so we did not partake in any breakfast items. Although, as we checked out early, I did notice breakfast items and hot coffee set out and ready for guests.
