Check in staff was personable and very kind. I arrived after 1 a.m., so appreciate the 24 hour reception desk. Price and location were fantastic. From outside looks basic - dated, but clean and neat. Everything in room is updated, very clean, and functioned as it should. I am very happy to have stumbled upon this place. It’s halfway point for my frequent trips to see mom. My dog and I will stay here again.

Excellent value for the price. Owner/manager was very friendly and informative. Bed was very comfortable and room was spotless. Although the property isn't fancy, everything was operational. No coffee in the room, but there is a fridge and microwave, so if you want coffee in the morning, pick up a cup at the Casey's and warm it up the next am.

The room was very clean. We were able to park right outside our room, which was very convenient. The amenities were very basic (two small bars of soap and small packet of shampoo/conditioner). The king size bed was comfortable. All towels and bed linens were clean. The owner, who was working behind the desk, was very pleasant and accommodating. We would definitely stay at this motel again.
