"I stayed in a 2 bedroom room with a little living room and kitchen. It was honestly great because each room had a bathroom and there was enough space for everyone, there were 7 of us including a baby. The breakfast was good, I wish it didn't end so early on Friday, at 8am, my whole family and I missed breakfast unfortunately. I think it should of ended at 9am instead. We were hoping on not having to spend money on breakfast. Staff was very nice and the property is very relaxing and feels safe...

"I'm betting this has been recently bought, and the new owners are trying to fix it. There were some building materials in the lobby. That said there were many rooms with no numbers on the door, my key took about 10 trys before it would let me in, they had to bring in a lamp because one of the ones in the room didn't work, and we found someone else's leggings in our room as we were packing to leave. Not hidden, and didn't see them the day before. There was no microwave or desk in the room. Never...

5/5 Excellent
1 night stay
"It was a very good stay. The wifi wasn’t great but other than that it was wonderful. Spacious clean king size bed. I didn’t turn the tv on so I don’t know about the channels. It was a very safe place to stay. Not much around the motel so you’ll have to drive to get something to eat. "
