This property seems to be an Iconic landmark. We booked last minute for an OU game. The staff was the sweetest! It’s not a new luxury hotel but was clean and quiet. Great price and a good location for a game weekend. The girl at the desk will be the reason I will book again. She was great!

This location and accommodation is very convenient to the campus and visiting our daughter. The only improvement would be to get larger bath towels, since they are quite small.

Don’t judge a book by its cover!! The outside looks a little scary, but this is the cleanest hotel room I have ever stayed in!! Everything was clean and fresh! Mel was the best and even gave us a game day list of events!! She was so kind and helpful! I felt very safe & the location was perfect for the game! The surrounding areas are quiet with little traffic!

Wonderful stay

Mel was wonderful and so very pleasant. The room was in great shape. The place is being updated and that is the reason for the rating of 3 in one specific area. But everything was excellent.

Look, it's an old style motel. It's not the Ritz. And it looks worse than normal because they're renovating. But the rooms are clean and comfortable and the staff is great. For the money, you can't beat it.

The rooms were a little outdated, but other than that we loved having a full kitchen for a couple dollars more. We were impressed when we got a phone call from the staff before our stay, and equally so when they greeted us by name at check-in. My only complaint is the shower head pressure was too hard and was pretty uncomfortable.
