"This is an older "Motorlodge" type motel. I like that you can park right outside your room and keep an eye on your car. The room was clean and the bed comfortable. The tub had some rust around the drain but was clean (the water was HOT!). The gentleman at the desk was helpful and friendly.
The only downside was that, like a lot of hotels, the walls are thin and noise comes right through them. The guy next door to me had the TV on and you could hear it in my room, outside his room through the door, even though the building itself is brick. And when his alarm went off at 4:30am I thought it was in my room! I even looked outside to see if the noise was coming from the parking lot. And he didn't wake up and shut it off until I started banging on the wall!
The motel is right off I-95. That end of Emporia doesn't have the amenities of the other exits on the north side, but the area is building up near the interstate. I will stay here again when I travel through the area."
