Probably the cleanest motel I've ever stayed in. Like wow, cleaner than my house has ever been. The inside is a little bit kitch, and the shower very basic, but fine and overall excellent for the price. (but like you're doing yourself a disservice with the purple and the butterflies and the throw cushions, a bit of a glow up girl and you'll be fire).

We stayed on a Friday night. Bad choice for this location. Boy racers hooned up and down the street most of the night. Noisy drunken people in the park. Noisy drunken tenants next door. The only reason I am not giving a 1 star is because of the service and the quality of the room.
