    Every time I went there to try to rent a room. They have looked at me disgusted and found any reason. Possible to not rent it to me. Last night. I was supposed to rent a room where I had a reserved room and just because my partner wasn't there at the time. They give me a half an hour to get him there

    If you're traveling on a budget this is the perfect place to stay. It's an old property, but they keep the rooms clean. The bed is comfortable to sleep on. The guy at the front desk was nice and got me checked in quickly. The only real downside is that you can hear loud music from a near by bar. However, I always have earplugs with me and was not bothered by the loud music. If you aren't expecting anything fancy and simply need a place to sleep for the night, I do recommend this place.

    I really liked the older "motor-hotel" era look and feel. It's had a LOT of TLC over the years and by the current family that owns and operates it. Nothing fancy, but nice and refreshing. It was nice to see an older structure maintained and not just bulldozed for something newer (and more expensive). I will probably stay there again for the next racing event I participate in that is held in Salem, Oregon. Thanks!

    It was like a crappy hotel in Tijuana with airconditioner and no roaches. It was not worth $112. Motel 7 is cheaper and probably mucky smelling or as small. I had to put a chair in front of the door because u could just push it open. Push i was fighting with bug that fly or crawled under the door that had a big gap underneath the door.

    Terrible customer service. It is an ugly and uninviting place. Reminds me of a Stephen King movie. No free coffee but at least the room was clean and the shower was hot.

    It was a very nice little motel with a very friendly manager who helped me back my car up into my spot by our motel room so I wouldn't be in the large puddle in the parking lot. The only thing I wasn't fond of was the heavy drums in the nightclub next door that echoed through the whole motel room. But that's not the hotel's fault. The location of the hotel was also excellent! Our event venue was only a mile down the road. And the bed was so comfortable I wanted to bring it home with me. I love the fact that there was a refrigerator and a microwave and the only thing messing with a coffee pot but there was a nearby restaurant for breakfast and coffee. And the price was just right! Five stars!

    Cons: The furnishings are very outdated. No deadbolts on inside of exterior doors. Although there weren't any issues, I didn't realize how much sense of security a simple deadbolt created until this experience. As a woman, I must say that if I were traveling alone, I won't have stayed. The heat had not been turned on so the room was ice cold (arrived at 10:30pm). Room was hard to keep heated consistently as room was drafting. Also, the heater itself was loud and the fact that it had to be on most of the night was a bit of a challenge. No in-room coffee available, which would have been nice to have, especially since we were leaving so early. Had to drive about a mile to find a convenience store to get our first cup of coffee. Coffee drinkers will understanding about how important that first cup is! : ) Pros: The room was clean as well as the bedding was fresh and clean. We only needed the room for a quick nap (4 hours) before needing to move on and the room served that purpose. Also, we didn't hear any of the other patrons through the walls. We knew other people were there because of the vehicles, but didn't hear one TV program or snore or footstep....nothing! : )
