This was the last stop on our 30th anniversary road trip. The room was clean & Mark was very helpful & courteous. He even called us right away when we left something in the room after check out - thank you Mark! The room doesnt have ventilation that we could find and the one window shares it with the AC. But overall, we were satisfied with our stay considering the nightly price & Marks kindness

Disliked: Amenities
The room was just average, as you would expect for the price and location. It served our purpose, but there is nothing notable about it. The mattresses could use an upgrade and the cabinets in the bathroom could use a good cleaning.The gentleman in the office was pleasant enough, but again, nothing outstanding to note. They could stand to invest in a coffee pot, with real coffee, for at least some morning hours.

Dated motel in the process of updating. Across the street from the train tracks, but no trains at night. A feed factory near by which makes noise 24 hours, but not too bad. On-site person was friendly and helpful.
