Everything about the room was very good. The breakfast was not so good.
4.2
Well, this was once my favorite place to overnight when doing a cross country run. But I have not been here in a few years and it has been sold to individuals who obviously doesn't love it as much as the previous owner. It is no longer the gem it once was. Dirty carpet, broken chairs and a bed that is firmly resting against an ancient baseboard heater, which looks unsafe. On the plus side- a clean bathroom. I am quite sure I will never stay here again The price was about the same as I paid for a nice room at a Hampton Inn the night before so there you go. Last, as an added bonus, there is garbage and tons on dog s**t right out front on the grassy area. And don't forget the diesel pickup idling right outside the door for 15 minutes at 0330 in the morning
4.2
Not good, advertised as pet friendly, got there and they said there was only a section of the hotel that was and not the room we got.
4.2
The staff is friendly, its an older classic--Aframe office, jack-alope photo opportunity, but updated, clean, in a good location for the traveler. The breakfast offered was really decent. Biscuits, gravy, waffles, cereal
4.2
I would stay here again. Everything was comfortable
4.2
Very clean and comfort room. I would stay again.
4.2
Good stay. traveling and needed a one night stay. Price was right, and although an older hotel, it was clean and served the purpose. Note; It is close to restaurants and has a mediocre breakfast, but good enough to get going !
4.2
Friendly & courteous check-in, clean & quiet room.
4.2
I have trouble believing the reviews for this motel. The stairwell is falling apart. The first room had cockroaches. The second room I didn't see cockroaches but there were flies. The carpeting was filthy. The bedding and linens were clean. The bed was comfortable. I was only there for a pitstop after driving all day. I guess you get what you pay for. I stayed there 3-4 years ago and I remember it to be decent for the $$. After this last visit, I won't be back.
4.2
Extremely friendly and proud staff, they take care of their investments and expect their guests to do the same, exactly the way I was brought up. Breakfast was not a huge offering but everything was kept fresh, very clean, wrapped up, and well stocked. The building is older but you can see that they have taken much care and spent money on keeping it up to date and fresh. Very comfortable beds, probably one of the best night's sleep I has in a week of traveling day to day. Thanks.

The beds were comfortable, the room was clean, the air worked well, the breakfast had lots of options… waffles, toast, eggs, sausage, yogurt, cereal, bananas & mandarins, with coffee & liquid flavored creamers. The check in man was friendly.
4.2
I was in a separate small building. There was no light and felt unsafe. Lights were turned on so that helped.
Front desk had poor command of English. I have no idea what he said to me. Also there was a customer who was not happy and front desk did a very poor job of resolving the problem
4.2
Bedroom was reasonably updated. Bathrooms are dated but functional. It’s likely a small business managed by the owners, so they might call if you arrive after 9pm.
4.2
A nice hotel, it is older, but it was clean comfortable and quiet, did not eat breakfast so can’t rate it. It was close to lots of places to eat
4.2
The room was gross…dirty walls, doors, bathroom. Extremely outdated. Broken chair, mold and mildew shower, room smelled like urine, carpet felt damp and made my feet dirty….ewww!
Front desk was nice enough but only spoke memorized sentences in English so he couldn’t answer our questions, which was frustrating.
The sheets and towels were clean and bug free though, so there’s a positive.
4.2
Traveling as a single woman, I was very concerned when I noticed there is no way to deadbolt the door. I mean, there was a deadbolt but it can be opened using the door key from the outside.
It’s an older hotel that doesn’t seemed to have been remodeled. It had a faint old hotel smell, but not bad at all. It was clean and everything worked great.
4.2
For the price this hotel may deserve better marks. They are working hard to renovate. Points deserved for that. Bathroom was very nice Bed was comfortable and bedding looked new as did towels.
We were able to park right in gront of the door which was very convenient. We stayed only one night. Quieter than more expensive motels we have stayed in. Very last ge wall tv which we didn’t have time to use but might impress some travelers. It was “okay” for less than 100.00. Staff very helpful.
4.2
Mold in shower knob. Beds were clean.
4.2
DONT STAY HERE!!
Made a reservation for one night, 2 rooms, not prepaid. At check in they only found one room but had rooms and we paid for the 2 rooms. The next morning noticed they had charged my credit card for a no-show, the room they couldn’t find the night before. We objected, they were uncooperative and said we needed to get the refund from Hotels.com. Calling Hotels.com offered little help as they said it needed to be resolved with the Thunderbird. Calling the hotel and talking with the manager who offered no resolution.
4.2
The check in & room were good. The bed was a little uncomfortable for us. Restaurant within walking distance was a bonus!
4.2
Very nice stay. Nice owners, good breakfast. Great check-in. Room was comfortable. Would stay again…
4.2
We had to have a pet friendly room. The carpet felt wet throughout and it smelled awful. The smell was perfumery. Had such an allergy attach.
4.2
This place was exceptional. I would recommend it any day!
4.2
Just stayed 1 night, no problems, staff was a bit difficult to understand (language). The shower was great, but noticed water puddled on floor at end away from shower-head. No obvious leak.
4.2
Close to the highway. Very clean and the man at front desk was very welcoming. Would stay here again in the future.

Great stay. Friendly staff, clean and comfy!
4.2
It is an older style motel that is well taken care of. The staff appear proud of the motel and eager to please. The breakfast had biscuits and gravy, waffles, cereal, bagels, pastry, yogurt, fruit as well as juice and coffee. Everything was in good repair and clean. Beds were comfortable. It's right off I90 and many food options are close. The good reviews were accurate
