The room was very clean. Really liked that the lamps had charging ports for devices. The beds were comfortable and the sound from the highway wasn't bad when sleeping. I would like access to more trash cans, there was just a small one. Overall, a great stay when we were in a pinch and needed something quick for an overnight stay.

We stayed one night, I was a little skeptical I never stayed at a motel and the outside was old and dirty. It’s right off the highway. I was pleasantly surprised how clean and updated the room was. Something’s were old like the phone. The staff was friendly and explained everything and answered my concerns. It was worth it for one night and the price was good.

Better than expected

We needed a quick place to stay for the football game and this place was so much cheaper than other places around. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was very clean. The mattress was a little firmer than i prefer, but im not complaining. I would stay again!

Basic overnight stay

We basically just needed a room for before and after a concert at Stuart's Opera House. It was just about right for that. The shower was nice, and the room was clean.

Fabulous motel. Great, family-owned business. Room was clean, extremely comfortable, and the customer service was great. Wound up booking an extra night just because my first was so great. Tons of TV channels. and the on-site laundry is so convenient. I will definitely be back.
