Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
I love that there was on site parking. The location was very good. The room itself was very clean, but it smelled of smoke upon arrival. Plus, I assume bathroom window was open to get rid of the smell, but I was worried about the window locking properly, once smell went away. The manager was extremely helpful and kind. I would definitely stay here again.

Average motel. Good for a few nights
Nothing special. The room was ok a bit tired. Coffee maker. Just an average motel . Having a fridge was handy in the summer. No breakfast, or at least I couldn't find it, but a 7 11 across the road

Dodgy neighborhood, nice staff
A place that has seen better days, in an area that is less than safe. Staff was very nice and helpful, but did make a point of telling us not to leave anything in our car because robberies are common. The place is old and run down, but management seems to be working hard to spiffy it up.
