Older but acceptable
This is an older motel. The carpet needs to be replaced. The directions for the TV remote didn’t match the remote in the room. The heater in the room was not working properly. The temperature was set to 61 but it was blazing hot.

This was the only room available in town that I booked at the last minute for family weekend at MSU. I was pleasantly surprised by how nicely appointed it was! The rooms are clean and have all working amenities (microwave, fridge, etc), the beds are soft with nice comforters and the shower has great water pressure. The staff was super friendly. I'd stay again!

Cold and dirty
Door had a quarter inch gap under it and iwth it being outside facing, the gap was so large leaves could blow in and no doubt insects if in summer time of year. Had to push a towel in the gap as it was 10 degrees out. Wall heater would only tun on for 20 seconds at a time. Shut off and in 2-5 mins would tunr on again for a short time. Odd.
Not overly clean or updated at all. We called to have out room cleaned on Sunday - came back Sunday night and it was never cleaned, no clen towels. (3 night stay)

My stay was okay. I enjoyed the tea at the lobby.
Breakfast could improve if some fruits are added.
