6/10 Good

It was very basic, but it was clean, everything worked and the staff was pleasant. The shower was hot, the cable worked and place was quiet. But just to repeat, it's basic. It's good for a place to crash for the night and then head off to where ever your going. Would stay there again if in the area.

The motel has been updated and seemed very clean. Our room seemed quite moist as the carpet may have been recently shampooed.

8/10 Very good

Check in was quick and easy. Getting directions was a bit difficult due to a language barrier. The jey needs to be pulled out of the room door about an 1/8-1/4 inch before it'll turn to unlock the door. For the price, its a great room in a great location. I'd definitely stay agin.
