I don't like to spend a lot of money for rooms that I'm just sleeping in on a road trip so I have definitely had my share of sketchy motel rooms. I was very pleasantly surprised at the cleanliness and friendliness of the staff and how accommodating they were to us and our dogs. If you need a clean and safe place to stay for a road trip this is the place for you!

Not worth the price
I hotel was old and dingy. Of the 4 lamps in my room only 1 of them worked. When I came out for breakfast the employee was sleeping on the couch. The breakfast area had 4 tables where only 1 of them had chairs to sit in. The other three had their chairs upside down on the tables. The floor was visibly dirty from spills.

There was pet hair and human hair on the fresh bedding upon arrival despite it being a pet free room. The wifi didnt actually work. The outlet in the bathroom took resetting a couple times to actually work. The walls are very thin I could hear the person in the room next door snoring. The breakfast is meek and didn’t offer any fresh fruit not even apples or oranges. The establishment and room was extremely humid the whole stay. Lots of people clearly living there and on drugs sitting around outside. The business owner was very kind and polite though. And the AC worked well. Wouldn’t stay again though because of the pet and human hair in on the bedding.

The bed didn't have a mattress. We were sleeping on the box springs! And, there wasn't a comforter or thick blanket but sheets. The bathroom was extremely small and hard to maneuver around. And the window to the room wouldn't lock so it wasn't very safe. Won't repeat a stay there.
