The office person was very nice and accommodating, the room was large with a comfortable bed, nicely decorated. More choices for breakfast. Conveniently located off the highway. The only thing I did not like was that the side entrance was not secure. It was left unlocked, not like most motel/motels that need a key card for entry. Also fairly priced.

I tried to give it the benefit of the doubt for the price but dirty room and found a roach. People constantly trying to get into our room. Ended our stay 3 days early and found somewhere else to stay. Says it’s smoke free but the entire building smells like they sprayed air freshener to mask the cigarette smell.

This place was extremely cheap. It was extremely clean. It didn’t smell like marijuana like most hotel rooms too. They were slot machine, machines, free alcohol and it was very comfortable and I enjoyed my time there. My wife and I felt safe and it was great as we went and watched our kid play Division I college football. It’s awesome to have a place that doesn’t break the bank and is comfortable and has stuff for you to do.

The property is old. Pictures on line do not properly describe the property. The beds in the double rooms are full size not queens. There was water damage in the bathroom. The property had a musty smell. You could not regulate the water temp in the shower. It would be great and then freezing cold then scalding hot without touching the water. Not the worst place I've stayed, and I've stayed in allot of places but close.

I didn't even get to stay. I got in early, and they offered early check in for a $30 fee. I was willing to pay that, but they would not honor the amount that was quoted by your website

This property is immediately next to the I-57 ramps, keep that in mind whether its a plus/minus for you. It is compact and motel style, with a big convenience being there's a big Phillips 66 walkable from the parking if you need all that awesome stuff. Unique cool stuff that was unexpected: huge newer TV, heat lamp in the bathroom, a video gambling area in the lobby. Great value for people doing fishing/camping/hunting or traveling solo.
