Very Poor room condition
Dresser table was missing so everything had to be put on the floor. Floor lamp was damaged and had to be leaned against corner wall as it would not stand on its own.
I was to tired to complain and change rooms but will check out room next time before I moving my stuff in.

Affordable
It was great for what I needed. A place to sleep and shower. Can’t complain about affordable and everyone was nice. This isn’t 5 start but that’s not what I was going for.

Great Location, Comfortable Room
I had a two-room suite with a separate living room with a sofa bed. This was quite comfortable for an extended stay. I really enjoyed the area and the motel has an excellent location.
