Do not use! THERE IS NOT A 24 HOUR LOBBY! We could not check in and no one answered the phone. So we had to find somewhere else to stay.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The room was not clean—there was hair and visible stains on the bed sheets, pillowcases, and other furnitures. We only had properly hot water for the shower on the first night. For the rest of our stay, we couldn’t shower since the water was lukewarm at best. Very disappointing stay for our year-end trip. We will not return.

A bare bones motel. I'll deal with the minor complaints for the cheap price: some lights flickered and had to be turned off. Only one restaurant open nearby. No major complaints.
