While on a move across the country we came across this Motel and found the staff friendly and kind. The room was comfortable and although the free breakfast was certainly not the best we've come across it did provide the basics. For it's value and cleanliness, we would recommend it.

This was not easy to find. The room had many deficiencies and the breakfast was awful. The desk attendant acted like I was bothering her online surfing time. Will never stay there again You can hear the noise from other rooms. It is probably considered a motor court rather than a hotel since all the room doors open to the... More

Very nice marble bathroom, flat screen T.V. with all the movie channels, New air conditioner, comfortable beds and I like that... More

The beds seem newer, they are quite comfy. Has seen some improvements since it became a Hojo but its still a dive. We stay here once a year and I don't know why. The service is friendly but that's about all that is good about the place. Stay elsewhere! Not recommended.

An older hotel found on hotline.com rated a 3star but in reality it was more like a 1.5 or a 2 @ the most. Usually a 3 star rating is for a Holliday Inn....When we I opened the pullout bed their was allot of crumbs and food in the sheets.I m not comming back here

Overall, i got a pretty good value from the 1 night stay. For $85, you cant really ask for more. Once you realize that its a motel and not a jotel, my mistake for not realizing that prior to booking, you cant really ask for more. My room was clean, tv and microwave worked just fine, and great service from... More

This hotel was a really good value for our money. The manager on duty was very nice to us and helpful with any issues that we had. We got upgraded to a king size bed and there was a nice LCD TV in the room. It was clean and relatively quiet. It's not a high-class hotel, but for the money... More
