Owners acted paranoid and suspicious. Stared uncomfortably long while talking in a foreign language. Establishment was dated and needed more repairs. Overall it was clean and served its purpose for a quick overnight stay.

I was in a separate small building. There was no light and felt unsafe. Lights were turned on so that helped. Front desk had poor command of English. I have no idea what he said to me. Also there was a customer who was not happy and front desk did a very poor job of resolving the problem

Good value
Bedroom was reasonably updated. Bathrooms are dated but functional. It’s likely a small business managed by the owners, so they might call if you arrive after 9pm.

The price was right but it was an older motel that maybe needs a little TLC. Expect an older decor that hasn't been updated for a while. AC wasn't really working and was very loud. They did have breakfast, which was nice. The area seemed a little sketchy but we didn't have any issues or concerns. Loved the jackelope. That made it worth it, but expect to get what you pay for.
