The motel was old. It was clean, bedding was comfortable. Had all the room essentials, fridge, microwave, iron & ironing board. It wasn't the best place I have stayed but the price & location was great.

Room Clean, Bed Comfy, Strong Smell
Staff was super nice. Room was clean, bed was really comfortable. Air conditioner worked well. Check-in went fast and easily. The hotel has seen better days and looks it. My room smelled very very strongly of cigarette smoke. I would have liked a secondary indoor lock on the door.
