Standard roadside motel, reasonably comfortable. We enjoyed the pool and the excellent ice machine on the very hot day we were there. Playground is probably ready to be torn down, seemed a bit unsafe.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The room was clean and quiet. Bed was good. But not sure about people living there. It was adequate for our needs.
Pristine clean in the room, comfortable bed and sofa, appreciated the fridge and microwave. Staff so polite! Pool wasn't open at time of visit. Convenient to groceries, restaurants, parks and of course the Caverns.

Not the best place and will never stay here again!
I will never stay here again!!
I booked and paid for a queen bed and he gave me a room with 2 double beds.
I asked him to honor my reservation and he said too bad - things happen.
The street noise is horrible so don't expect a quiet night sleep!
