We stayed at this particular motel because it was close to where my family lives.
We had a king sized bed in our room. The bed wasn't completely uncomfortable (seemed a little hard) and the pillows were a bit too poofy, but that's just our opinion. Others might find it to their liking.
The room was mostly clean (bathroom, bed, table & chairs) but in some spots it was a bit dusty (just behind the tv) and I saw a couple of cobwebs hanging from the ceiling, so that made me think that the room hadn't been used for some time, or the cleaning crew might have missed those areas when dusting.
The heater warmed up pretty quick but the only thing we didn't like was that it wasn't temperature controlled. During the night we had to get up to shut it off because it was too hot, and then had to get up and turn it on when it got too cold.
The walls are pretty thin, and we could hear other patrons showering or flushing the toilet. (Luckily there weren't any other sounds coming from the other rooms :) )
The breakfast they provided was good for us since we were meeting up with our family later on in the day, it was light. Bagels, english muffins, muffins, cereal, etc...
I liked that the coffee was always fresh. It was nice to see that at 930 when breakfast was going to end, there was no one rushing over to take everything away.
The gentleman at the front desk was personable as we checked in and when we checked out.
Overall it was a good experience, a good value and we would definitely come back to stay.
