5 STAR good place to find local & visiting trixs,party(DnA) and film amateur & group hardcore without having to be concerned the cops or management will knock on your door.
8.0
The outside looks a bit rugged and older, but the rooms were clean and taken care of. While the room did seem a bit older, my only complaint was that the shower seemed a little dirty. But for an overnight stay, you can't beat the price or the area
8.0
Decent motel for the price. I didn't encounter any bugs(and i search) and the guy that runs the place keeps up on cleaning the rooms. Their older in style and a little run down but clean is the impt part. My little fridge never worked but it was winter so I just kept my food outside in a milk crate on top of my truck. I would have liked to have a more secure door for my weeks long long term stay but I had no issue with anything going missing. For the weekly price I paid I wasn't expecting the hilton and if I needed to do so again I would return. I was content enough to stay 3 weeks. The guy that runs the place was also very helpful even helped when my car was frozen shut.

I tried to sleep but kept on waking up to moaning. When I investigated the noise I walked in on a cult meeting. Ended up getting my tendinitis removed, but got hot coco after from them. Would recommend the experience.
8.0
For the price and the amazing view when you walk out the door, couldn't really ask for more. The fella in the office answered some of my questions of the area and even had no issue with me parking my bobtail in front of my room. Sure the place is a little older in appearance, both inside and outside, but for the price you shouldn't expect a "Hampton inn and suites" appearance. However my only requests of the place is maybe a deadbolt for the room door and that the "ditch" like pothole between the parking lot and the road gets fixed. Other than that, quite well liked my stay.

Good value for the price. The rooms are very basic but also very clean. Sort of like a mobile home park little motel. Tiny bathroom but clean and working properly. No complains for the amount I paid. Would repeat definitely

Wasn't really paying attention to the room. Sorry but the service was great..I mean right on top of the things I needed for the stay. My reservations are always dealt with quickly and there's never a time I couldn't get a room at the tearass.its still yet another place I haven't taken my girl to
