Perfect for Families!

“During our travels, we love to mix up the types of places we stay. If you're heading to the United States, you must try a motel! This one was decent and offered great value for money; we were able to book a room for four people. Perfect for family or friends, I highly recommend it!” view full review

Clean and Functional

“I appreciated the cleanliness of the bathroom facilities. It was just what we needed—a clean space to freshen up after a long day of exploring. It was functional and served its purpose well!” view full review

Adequate Comfort

“We were looking for a clean bed and bathroom, and we got that without a doubt. The bedroom was adequately furnished with enough space for our bags. While the furniture and decor were a bit dated, the room still felt comfortable enough for our stay.” view full review

Basic Entertainment

“The room came equipped with a TV, which was great for unwinding after a long day. Although there were limited electrical sockets and we had to choose between the microwave and TV, it was nice to have some entertainment options available during our stay.” view full review
