Breakfast was good and staff was friendly and helpful. For the price you cannot go wrong!! Will absolutely stay again." - "Clean comfortable room. Plenty of food and shopping options " - "Was pleasantly surprised room was refreshed for a 2 night stay. Many places no longer offer that service. Liked the egg patties, sausages and waffles for a hot breakfast. Extremely reasonable prices compared to other nearby motels. To get to it, can be easy to miss the drive as many drives close by. Maybe have a sign at the end of the drive so easier to find. Would definitely stay again. "

The staff made this property stand out. The woman who checked us in was amazing. I was expecting a totally different personality from a night check in person. At other properties the night staff can't usually be bothered to be helpful. She was so helpful. She told us where to go and that there was a party of 12yr old girls on our floor. She says to let her know if they were to loud. She asked if we needed anything and I had forgotten toothpaste and my bf had forgotten his deodorant. She gave us both items complementary. Oh and she also found my rewards account i had forgotten about. Her customer service was exemplary. "
