It is conveniently located. The only real downside was no a/c. They did provide a fan.

Nice stay. We had our dogs with us. Large spot for them to go potty. Room was clean. Very nice large mini fridge . The only thing I was surprised with was that mini golf was not free as advertised. You got a very small discount to play . All in all a decent place to stay .

2 rooms, booked month in advance. Rooms on opposites sides hotel & street. Noisy, traffic, heater, after got it to work. Both rooms. Clean, but flood light, noise, ice machine, soda machine, stairs next to room all combined for a horrible stay. Expect better for 300 dollars a night. Did i mention old mattress. Next time motel 6, more bang for the buck.

The main issue was that the room was hot and stuffy all night long. We made sure the heater was off and utilized the fans. We tried opening the window, which would only open a few inches due to a block placed on the tracks. I called the front desk and their response to me was to use the fans provided. The internet was very slow. The refrigerator froze all of our food and drinks. No microwave. The bottom bed sheet on both beds kept coming undone. I know it sounds like “nit picking,” but it just seemed to be one thing after another. Also, the mini golf course is not included in the stay. We wil not stay at this facility again.

Ok for the price.

Clean room, Lots of pillows, bed was older spring, bouncy and too soft. Room was stuffy and hot, but there were two fans in room for cross ventilation. AC upgrade would make this a great place to stay, as is it was average.

Friendly, Clean and Comfortable!

Booked this one night stay at the last minute as we were on a week long road trip. Check in was super easy, the nice lady was very friendly and accommodating. The 2 queen room was very good size, beds were comfortable and everything in the room worked well, fridge was actually cold! Would definitely recommend staying!
