The room was clean and the room was what to expect for the price. The manager was very nice. The only reason not five star was the toilet ran in and off all night.

Don’t let the word ‘budget’ fool you! It’s simply an amazing value!!! Amazing hotel, amazing team, amazing location, amazingly clean and amazingly convenient! Highly recommend! BETH, Assistant Manager, was professional and handled everything perfectly! Great service!!! I also love the fact that the owner and staff will respond to negative reviews professionally but also forcefully to counter have-told truths or stories from bad customers! Good for you!

Nice clean room. We were pleasantly surprised. Very nice folks running the property. We were goung to ride motorcycles for 3 days and asked if we could park there, they charged $30 in cash in advance, but we never did park at all fue to unforseen circumstances.

Made the reservation specifically because their hotel said they are pet friendly. After driving seven hours and not getting there until 11 PM we were told they are no longer pet friendly and they turned us away. We had to find another place to stay. Not at all happy that their information is not updated.

Our reservation said we could check in at 3 pm but they had a sign that said 4 pm check in. No one was at the office window and all doors into the office were locked. We rang the bell several times but no one came to the window. We left and returned later.

Small town, few options, not all bad

Older building, HVAC should be updated, they did update the bathroom and Sink area. Nice overall job but attention to detail lacking. Paint the door trim, dirty like a mechanics bathroom. Owners were very pleasant. Had to ask for toilet paper, they do not leave a back up roll in the room

Annoying But Cheap So Fine

Almost ran out of toilet paper. Didn't get shampoo for the 3rd and last morning. Things are pretty noisy, especially the air conditioning and the refrigerator. Had to turn the air conditioner off in order to sleep. Still would go there again because it was cheaper than the alternatives and that's what I care about
