4/10 Fair

Don’t stay here with spouse or kids. If you’re looking for a cheap option for travel by yourself, it will suffice, but it was sketchy the first night we checked in. There were drunk, shirtless people everywhere and definitely participating in drug use. We were scared to walk from our car to the room (which has an exterior entry, this is a motel). I imagine this is the place in town to bring hookers. The room itself wasn’t terrible and the breakfast was decent.

Clean room, but the bathroom was rather small. Almost had to stand in the tub to shut the door. Breakfast was good. The coffee was bitter to my taste (but I don’t drink it very strong).
