Lacking towels
The man at the front desk was about as professional as they come. He was ready for me when I walked in the door. Quick and clean. The only issue I had was there weren't any towels or wash clothes in the room.

The property was great for the price. Room was quiet even when the trains would pass behind the old motor inn. Never heard a train whistle until the next day after i checked out and was driving through town.

Sorry, I know it was cheap, but it was an absolute dump. My neighbor came back around 5:00 and was blasting music for hours. I finally complained to the staff, and he turned it down, until.... 12:30 AM the next morning when he was blasting it again. I was booked for 2 nights but promptly left that morning.

Good motel for the price
It is a no frill motel but the bed was super comfortable, the room was clean, and the staff bent over backwards to help with a key problem.

I was initially allocated the room away from the reception. I found that the wifi in this room was not good. When I told the staff, they kindly moved me to another room. Honestly, lots of flies in the first room. I spent 1 hour+ killing them (more than 20) but they were still there. Luckily the second room was light and clean. The condition seems to vary from room to room.

The staff was great, both times I've stayed there. Flys were bothersome, but I was able to take care of that myself. (Doors must be open for some reason during the day.)It's very inexpensive, but I saw painting and improvements being made.
