Here's where we come from: Our priority booking this hotel was value. we've been camping the week before checking in, so any place with warm running water that kept us from the 30 degrees chill outside was good. The avg mid week price for a good room in this area was $150ish. For a good cheap motel was $60-$70. I found this motel on Kayak without checking the TA reviews like I normally do, since we were on the road. The motel is basic and budget. It satisfied our needs. We paid $50 per 2 king bed rooms for one night. The room was clean. I did not find pubic hair on the sheets, the bathroom floor had no hair on it, there was no urine stain on the toilet. There were soap/shampoo/lotion dispensers on the wall. Indeed there was no deadbolt on the door, but the area seemed safe to us. As for the windows, there was a wooden stick that kept it from being opened from the outside. The noise from the highway did not keep me up at night. The two beds were separate by a wall and a door, which would be great for families. The breakfast was mostly packaged danishes, toast, coffee and juice...meager, but I didn't really care. All in all, I was surprised of all the bad reviews here. Isn't this what you expect when you book a hotel of this caliber? We ended up staying a second night, and I checked the pillows for hair and didn't find any. It appears the room was cleaned well. O, and I did not find any roaches like a prior reviewer mentioned. It made me think that the hotel might be under new management since all those poor reviews earlier this year, but the same family has been at the helm for the past 7 yrs. The second night we got a lower rate, and they even provided a 15% discount at a nearby Indian restaurant. I'd recommend this motel for any other laid back TAer who just wants an adequate place to lay down for the night.
