I'll start by saying the location was quite good. I walked in the room and while it seemed fine for a cheap 1 bedroom with 3 beds (2 twins in the main area) I noticed an unpleasant smell. I couldntquite tell where it was cominv from as everything appeared clean. I then sat down in 1 of the 2 tub chars (that were covered with cgair covers) to find that was the source of the smell. I tried to beutralhze the snell with essential oils and candles to no avail. Looted like the bathroom was recently renovated though..... it was the nicest oart of the room. 2 of the 3 nights we stayed the room lost lughts and hot water.

Service was friendly. Price was good. Outside of motel needed a real clean up. Our upstairs room was quiet. Room needed a real tidy up and was not particularly clean. The grounds were in need of a good tidy up. There were cigarette butts on the walkway outside our room that didnt get cleaned up in our 4 night stay.
