The room was clean and well kept and recently updated. Unfortunately, the hot water was not working on the night. We stayed this hotel is extremely close to the major highway 81 and the car and truck noise all night long is a big issue. Owner manager was good. Had coffee ready in the morning. All good

Hotel was close to the interstate and you could easily hear the traffic. Room was clean, however definitely needed paint and some attention. However, for the price, it was what we needed for 1 night stay. TV had Dish Network service which we enjoyed. Refrigerator and microwave was nice to have!

The owner was very friendly and treated our dog really well. Before we arrived, they called to let us know the showers didn’t have hot water, which was disappointing since we still paid full price. The AC and heat both worked great, but the room wasn’t very clean and felt a bit uncomfortable. The price was decent, and the location was alright. No breakfast, but there’s a Jack’s close by. Overall, it wasn’t the worst stay, but I wouldn’t choose to stay here again.

Very clean. Friendly staff. There is road noise and a train. But that is to be expected and obvious due to its location near the highway. I have 4 stars only because the water would not get hot in the shower. It was barely warm. Others I spoke to said this was not typical of the hotel though. No place to walk your pup, BUT... there is a dog park beside the gas station on the other side of the overpass!
