Very happy with our accomodation. When we arrived, the staff upgraded us from a family room to a 2 bedroom motel room which was fantastic. The decor is dated but it was clean, comfortable, quiet and had everything we needed for a 1 night stay. I would recommend this motel for a short stay away and it is central to everything.

4/10

Front desk service was friendly & excellent. Room was noisy - outside traffic and neighbors dogs. Very humid because of gap under door and permanent opening in bathroom window - A/C didn't remove humidity. Carpet and bathroom floor sticky from humidity. Beds clean & comfy. Basic amenities good (microwave, fridge, table to eat at, basic dishes). Noise was biggest factor.
