Needs to be demolished
The place is just very old and dingy. No amount of scrubbing could clean this place up. It really needs to be demolished. The staff was very friendly and helpful though. I I would not recommend staying there to anyone.

Road noise, old room, needs updating
Service was great. Room had a lot of road noise on both sides. Bed was OK. TV was old. Flooring was crackly. Room was clean. It's an old motel, we didn't expect much. But I think the outside road noise was the worst part.
