I’ve stayed at this hotel several times over the years, and I can confidently say the transformation under the new management has been outstanding. From the moment I arrived, I noticed the difference. The staff are far more attentive, warm, and professional. Check-in was smooth and welcoming, and the team truly made me feel valued as a guest. It’s clear that the new leadership has focused on improving training and hospitality standards.

Great stay under new ownership. I had a pleasant experience at this motel. The new owners have clearly put in a lot of effort — the rooms are newly renovated, clean, and comfortable. The staff was very friendly and welcoming, which made check-in easy and the whole stay enjoyable. On top of that, the rates are very affordable for the quality you get. I’ll definitely be staying here again next time I’m in the area. Highly recommend!
