Not fancy but no complaints
Nothing fancy but a comfort stay. Seems like it was a pretty quiet night there and looking at the parking lot it seemed like the cars were kind of nicely spaced out so I think they spaced the rooms out so you didn't really have another person right on top of you thus not noisy. The heating worked & the shower was hot, those are two main things for me.

Nice stay
The room was very clean. We’ve stayed here multiple times never had issues. The check-in was very easy. The person behind the desk was very friendly.

Not much to say. They allow smoking, and 99.9% of hotels don’t. There’s no other reason to stay there.

Nice motel. Clean, but dated. Tub does not hold water. Coffee maker does not work and they did not have a replacement.

It was good - I left days inn to stay there the only issue is someone walked in to my room without knocking to clean without even us checking. Out so I’m unhappy about that it was messed up and took away our privacy!

I didn’t realize I had booked a smoking room, which I did not want. The check-in clerk switched us over to a non-smoking before I even had a chance to ask. Excellent customer service.
