What Our Guests Say

  • This is a fantastic little hotel... I travel about 250 days a year and this is the hotel I'd like to find in every town. The rooms are clean and cozy with recliners in the rooms — I mention that because its important to me. The people that work there are exceptionally friendly and helpful. Also everything that you may need is within walking distance.... I give very few 5 star ratings.

  • Having stayed here a few times, the employees have always been helpful, and willing to help my stay be a good one. My room has always been clean and tidy, I never had to worry about a dirty room. It is close enough to the interstate and within reasonable distance from most of what I would need. When I travel to G.I. here is where I stay.

  • Clean sheets & close proximity to restaurants. It's about a mile from the casino.

  • This is a fine motel to stop at while traveling across country. Our room was clean and had a good bed, new carpeting, wallpaper and paint, and a nice television. Also a full size refrigerator! The free wireless internet worked very well. There are a few decent places to eat nearby too. Nothing fancy, but the rate was good and nothing to complain about.
