Stayed a total of 3 nights here - 1st night was quiet and great. However, the remaining 2 nights were spent listening to the person assigned to the room next to us yelling at her partner and BLASTING music in her car in the parking lot. There's also a lot of remodeling going on so if you want a midday nap, it's probably not happening. Overall, the motel was clean and good amenities but I definitely feel like it was overpriced. I could have stayed at a Hilton for a similar price and not had to deal with the stereotypical motel conditions. Food at the cafe is good and staff is friendly, though.
