Great for the price; Clean spacious rooms with good nearby amenities; Nice, friendly staff.
A very safe place to stay and very good internet speed and connectivity. I give it an A+ Rating. The Motel Staff were professional and courteous. There is a full sized gas station right next to it - Exxon to refuel at low gas prices cars or 18 wheelers with parking space for them. There is also a bar and grill right next to the motel that is a nice place to eat walking from your room. This is a good safe place to stay at and prices are very reasonable.
The motel was the best value for the price. Owners were awsome. Unfortunately the 4 AM train is pretty much unbearable. They could offer a weekly rate and a special military/contractor rate for long term customers.
Its nice no one bothers you .. The owner is awsome staff is friendly .. Rooms r clean .. And if you need any thing all you have to do is ask .. I would send my friends here if they come this way ..
Great Service, free WiFi, HBO, nice rooms. They are small rooms but for the best price in town ($47.00), I'm not complaining. I highly recommend to stop here first if you need to lay down for the night.
Rates are good. I like the owner at night. Stay here frequently. Compare rates and accommodations in a 20 mile radius and come back here.
It's a great place to stay here at anytime of the year. The rooms are very clean. The television has a variety of channels and Wi-Fi is available all for under $50 if you are a Veteran.
Great staff super friendly and helpful. It’s a older hotel and cheaply priced so don’t expect the best but it’s clean and cozy

Short, honest notes are more useful than long ones. A few sentences about what worked, what surprised you, and who the hotel is best for will go a long way.
