Checking was fast, The coffee cups in room were dirty Ac did not cool very well, could be cleaner. Curtain did not block out a-lot of light, as it was to short for the window. Road noise was bad due to gaps around doors and ac unit. It was a quick place for a one night stay. But i did not get much sleep.

You get what you pay for. This place was not expensive, it was clean and good for a nights stay. The front desk person did a good job but had no personality nor was he over friendly but thats not that important to me. The room itself is quite dated and even though its been remodeled it is old. The road noise was immense, cant help that as the main hwy road is 40 ft from the rooms.
