"It’s clean and comfortable, and the staff is nice. Also close to interstate. All rooms are first floor, and you can park right outside your door. Don’t expect anything more than a bed: ice machine did not work while I was there (Sept 24), grass not mowed (doesn’t affect room comfort), but bed and linens were clean, a/c worked, shower had good pressure and temperature, and tv worked, so I got what I needed (a bed for 8 hours)."

"Great stay, as always. Very clean, staff was great. Had the best hamburger I've had in a long time, at the grill on the casino floor. Looking forward to future stays."
