Check-in was fine. The motel gave me a ground floor room I liked that. I liked the room close to the entrance and exit. They had a great breakfast and good coffee. I stayed one night would use the motel again if I was in the area again.
The room was okay, check in was a little odd as it was after 3:30 and they had to run around to find a room that was clean. The bathroom was super small and funky smelling. Beds were firm and the sheets had slight staining. It was extremely noisy overnight. Slamming doors and maybe road noise? Overall it was an average stay, I don’t think I’ll book again.
Great Freddy’s restaurant next door. Nice, clean room. Good spot for stop on way to CO.

Meh
Room was not well cleaned from previous people staying. Lightbulb was burned out and shower drain was broken. Long hairs on the bathroom sink, AC was extremely loud and did not cool the room very well.
The staff were very kind, but the air conditioner switched on and off all night and was SO loud. When I tried turning it off it was super hot in the room. Bed was very comfortable but the AC situation made it hard to sleep.
I’d stay here again. It’s an older hotel. You have to walk upstairs which isn’t the best, but I survived. Bed and pillows were comfy. Room was pretty clean. Rusted toilet paper holder and Kleenex holder. Baseboards need cleaning. But otherwise seemed clean. Good value. Breakfast is basic. I grabbed a banana.
Comfortable bed, nice breakfast options (yogurt, hot eggs and sausage along with cereals, pancakes, muffins, etc), clean room, quiet even tho it was busy, convenient area. Would be happy to stay here again.
