Positives: We had a non-smoking room with 2 queen beds for 2 nights on March 14 and 15, 2013. It looked like the outside of the hotel had just recently been painted. Very nice and clean exterior. The walls and ceiling in our room looked very nice and clean. The tub enclosure and sink area were in great shape. The... More

Truly by far the best motel and one of the best hotels I have ever stayed at! They offer services that nicer hotels make you pay extra for, and this one is nice. The nicely decorated, clean-smelling room had a hair dryer, small microwave, and the largest fridge I have ever seen in a hotel. This was all included in... More

There was such a heavy smell of smoke in our room that all of our clothing was ruined with a smoky smell after we stayed here, only one night. I would have complained but I was so tired after a long drive, I had to sleep, which ended up being difficult to do because the bed was not comfortable and... More

As soon as we drove in the lot, I had a bad feeling- a lot of trucks and work trucks were parked in the lot, as well as a lot of guys in sweat pants, drinking beers, and laughing with each other. Despite that, having checked the ratings on Tripadvisor, we got a room, and proceeded to check in. As... More

Comfortable room but the buffet needs some work.

This was our second great stay at this hotel. This hotel is priced right for us and very clean and well kept. We enjoy the free dinner and also the free breakfast. The staff is super nice and always very helpful. This is a good exit with pleny of restaurants and not too much traffic. This hotel is strongly recommended.
