It was clean no bugs warm a little small but price was reasonable convenient drive thru and gas station beside it. All in all I had no complaints I was quite comfortable. Would definitely recommend to others. Way better than knights inn in Belden village and nasty drug and bug infested Towne manor or perry inn I'd stay here before any of those anyway!

The rooms are always neat & tidy when we visit. The AC blows cold, the water stays hot ! It's usually on the pretty calm, cool & collective side whenever we've visited. It's quiet for the most part, & you get your own little carport to pull into before reaching the door entrance as well each room to my knowledge has a back door as well. It's right off the highway for traveling convenience. However, I don't agree with there price hike from $55 to $65! I mean seriously why would anyone want to pay $15 more for anything if it's exactly the same way it was for 55!? And it used to be 50 with a five-dollar key fee and you would get the $5 back when you return the key! They don't do that anymore now it's $60 if you pay with cash and $65 if you pay with card now me being a small business owner I know the stipulations of working with other companies to be able to accept credit debit basically swipey swipe cards. And I am aware of the different ways that these companies make their money. Some charge subscription fees, some attack on interest with each credit card swipe but here's the thing you're telling me you're up charging me five extra dollars so that you can use that specific company I would be looking into other companies that didn't upcharge your consumer. Now I get that you're supposed to charge your clients so much money for stuff but you're already overcharging for a basic room to sleep in, possibly take a shower. I mean jeez they don't even do prorated rates after a certain time just to sell off the last of their rooms I feel like since they want to act like the stock market all these motels and hotels anymore and I feel like after a certain time when you're not really even doing much except closing your eyes for a few hours before it's time to check out I believe they should have cheaper prorated rooms if any left over to rent out for cheaper prices. hey that's a good marketing skill and it'll also cause you to probably have a better liking following and more clients being that you are for the people not just for your greedy selves give back to the community a little bit and they'll want to spend with you I'd rather go anywhere else then here "motel" wise because all the other local motels are $50 couple of them are 55 and that's the five for the room key and again like I said above once you return the key you get your $5 back. But yeah this is the last resort motel because it's not that it's not nice and clean and I don't quite care for the office people that run this place they're very rude especially the one female that always has a negative attitude for NO reason. Anyways it's clean & is perfect if you just need a quick, local, low-key priced place to crash for a night or two. There's a speedway nextdoor in walking distance and the motel also has its own drive-thtu in the front part of their parking lot. There's a McDonald's across the street from Speedway~also in walking distance if need be or wanted to go for a walk to eat. On the other side of the motel is a Newly Refurbished carwash
