  • Engine customer Mar 2026

  • Engine customer Feb 2026

    What stood out most was the staff. They were extremely kind and welcoming. One staff member even offered to carry my luggage upstairs if my room had been on the second floor, which I truly appreciated. That level of courtesy made a positive impression. Overall, a comfortable stay with very friendly service.

    The front desk staff was very helpful in making my reservation

  • Engine customer Jan 2026

    It was the cheapest in town The 'couple' upstairs was moving furniture around most of the night and during their breaks I could clearly make out every word of their conversation. And there was some sort of car show/beer tasting convention in the parking lot outside my door from 2-4 am

    There were a few challenges I faced during my visit that had nothing to do with the motel itself, yet the manager still stepped in with understanding and support. Her willingness to help, even beyond her responsibilities, made a significant difference and truly speaks to her character and dedication to guest satisfaction. The rooms were exceptionally clean, well-maintained, and comfortable. Every staff member I encountered was polite, responsive, and courteous. Any time I requested something, it was provided almost immediately—within seconds, if not minutes. Overall, this motel delivers outstanding service, exceptional care, and a genuinely welcoming environment. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable, and well-managed place to stay. NA

    The room was reasonably clean No shampoo, no nightstand light, no hair dryer, WiFi not working, and overall run down and neglected.

  • Engine customer Oct 2025

    Management was very kind and helpful. It was nice knowing they keep a good watch of the property.

  • Engine customer Sep 2025

    The management was very polite and helpful. There' should be a coffeemaker in the room with accessories. There should be complimentary shampoo and conditioner in the bathroom.

    Liked: I liked the Battles Neighborhood Market, the Mexican restaurant and barbershop across the street on McClelland Street. It's a nicer property than the crime-ridden motel across the street. Disliked: the dangerous zone of the city that this business creates for us all. It's like a red zone area in the Netherlands, taboo happenings everywhere - only for adults 21 years of age and up There's schools nearby, for Pete's sake.
