Amy

Travelled with family and small children
Liked: Staff & service
We booked the motel based on the pictures due to our place not having space for us until Saturday. The pictures did NOT match the facilities. Inside is not bad but the couches are not moved evident of the dust bunnies beneath them. And due to us needing 4 beds and there were only 3 we had to utilize the sleeper couch. The bathroom is small and in the middle of the room, not like the pictures and the lawn chairs are on concrete. There is also no place for children to go play outside. Not a bad place but not one i would recommend for people travelling with small children. (Also dont go on the pictures)
