I didn’t book the motel room and expected to be in the hotel. Requested a different room but nothing available. Very noisy. Not insulated well. Unit was in need of a good cleaning. Floor was cold. Up side was that I slept well, breakfast was decent and the pool/hot tub was nice

Very basic property with few amenities. Shampoo only and soap. Breakfast very limited. Bed very soft and uncomfortable. But this is an “econo” property.

Earl

Not our best choice
Not what we expected, low rate room. No slip guards available in shower. Not sure why but we were “banished” to an older separate building thing is I don’t think they were fully booked. On the positive side, very quiet area at least the Saturday night we spent there. Probably pay a little more and stay somewhere elese in the future.
