The location was great! The customer service was great! I was disappointed that I reserved 2 queen beds and a full size bed; 3 beds in total. When I got to the room, they were all full sizes. I was too tired to complain.

The location was great! The pictures look way nicer than in person. It’s definitely motel rooms. They say there is coffee between 8am and 10am but you get coffee packets to take to your room. This is very budget inn and especially for the price of the rooms.
