There's a reason why people rate this place a 5. The staff are very friendly, easy to communicate with, housekeeping comes every other day so it's actually never dirty. Someone is always available to talk if you have any concerns since it's 24/7 and including cameras!!! Really there's no complaints here at all.

Only been here for about a week,but the Owner/Manager was very helpful and polite in helping me get a nice room. I like it because it has a community feel to it,I believe a majority of the people who stay here weekly are employed at local companies such as myself. I'm only about 3 minutes away from work and I don't have to fight traffic going to and from work. Plus I'm saving on gas every week ! The Grounds are well lit at night and I was told there's cameras around,no riff Raff around to bother you.. Another plus is that each room has a carport and is not closely attached to another room. Great Place that you can make it home!

Very nice place to stay. Manager is so respectful and helpful. Nice service as we got room what we wanted. They have all the room with something different inside as available on their website. We select the room and he given the same room. Everything new inside the room. Nice lighting. New bathrooms. So quiet on the property. Awesome experience. We stay almost all the motel down the street but they have best quality rooms I can say with less price. Must recommended.
