Room was very basic but also very clean. I good choice if you just want a cheap, clean room for a night's sleep. The building and grounds are old and desperately in need of repairs, maintenance and upgrading.

Staff very friendly. Property a little run down. Cosmetically, could've been improved. However, if you were looking for a clean room and a comfortable bed to spend the night, it was ve ry good.

The room is clean. It’s just an old hotel. The ice machine was broken cinderblock walls, but it it’s OK if you just need to sleep for the night and get going in the morning.

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
The room and bedding smelled of stale smoke. Although it was fairly clean, everything in the room was old and very worn out. The bed felt like a box springs rather than a mattress. But for the price and last minute accommodations, it was as good as a roadside motel could be.

This motel was a convenient stop, but I didn't realize it is next to a busy rail line. Six or seven trains passed through during the night. No amenities to speak of; no working A/C and a non-functional ice machine.

The room was fine enough to stay in as you traveled through. There was not enough plug-ins to recharge things nor were there any in the bathroom. There was not a vent fan for the bathroom either. There was a bit of a smell, but tolerable. There was not a coffee maker in the room, but there was instant coffee in the office, but they were not open early.

This was an old facility but maintained and clean. The AC unit was rather loud but worked very well. There was a train track across the highway which was highly used throughout the night waking me up numerous times. I am not used to noise of any kind at home so more sensitive to noises. This may not be an issue for others .
