It's a nice budget friendly motel. It's in good shape, everything was functioning and looked good. They are pretty strict on the check in time, so don't expect to check in early. The lobby is inviting, the restaurant was packed, the laundry facilities worked great, the pool was lovely. Had a great stay.
