This is a relatively cheap hotel. It’s very bare bones as far as amenities go. You can tell that it started out as a typical 1950’s-1960’s motel, all on one level, park your car right in front of your door. The staff was very responsive to questions and at check-in and check-out.

For a budget motel, this place is actually pretty nice. Clean and comfortable. There are often construction workers staying here but otherwise it’s not bad for the savings compared to other properties in the area. It is also seemingly safe around motel. New Walmart Market close.

They let me check in early which was very convenient, yet the room itself was bad. I didn’t expect much being a budget friendly place to stay, but the tv didn’t work, the sheets were stained, and I had to clean the tub before I could shower.

No frills, no nothing. Bed, table, tv. Thats it. Which is ok for a quick overnight stay like we did. Room was clean (for the most part), water was absolutely non existent. A trickle out of the faucet. Linens were absolutely disgusting!

Water in shower was Luke warm not hot or warm enough. The heat in room did not warm the room up for comfort.not enough blankets. I overpaid for a poor stay at this hotel. The noise level was loud past 11pm from other rooms. I should get half of my money back.

The AM staff was unfriendly and unsympathetic to the issues that we had with an extremely hard bed, pillows were non-supportive, no amenities available, and roaches in the room. Her words were “I guess we need to call pest control and we don’t control what comes on!”

The room floors were unclean. Very tight with towels, there were 3 of in the room. Only one chair, 3 towels, 3 wash clothes and no hand towels. Had to call for clean towels and bedding. No full time cleaning staff, we had to bag our own trash and set it outside our door at night. The mattresses left much to be desired. The mattresses need to be replaced.The manager or owner was very nice and responded in a timely manner when we called with needs, like twice for the TV not working.

It’s good for a budget if you’re looking for somewhere to lay your head. Might want to bring your own pillow and slippers for the shower, but otherwise ok. Beds are harder and not as soft, but I didn’t mind it. Can be quiet, but if lots of people around can be loud.

I mistakenly had the wrong date for our reservation (Travelocity puts in current date automatically) I notice it right away on the receipt. I immediately called the Inn. Receptionist said she couldn't make a change since the reservation was through Travelocity. I then called Travelocity. They called the Inn but couldn't do anything as a manager was not available. Travelocity said I would receive an email as soon as possible. I did received the email with the explanation that management could not do anything about it because the reservation date was passed. I am disappointed both in the Budget Inn & Travelocity. I will find another place to stay & will not be making anymore reservations through Travelocity unless this is properly cared for.
