The Family is an awesome family. I couldn't be more pleased with the service.
Nonsmoking. As all hotels are now. Cheap. Clean rooms. 24 hours
Customer service is great, rates are low and location is prime
Clean place, safe, friendly people. Would recommend. Also, good location close to Airport.
Literally some of the best owners. They were so kind to me and really went out of their way for me. It was an unforgettable experience and 3 years later I still remind myself of their hospitality. Respect them and they respect you. Stay humble and know they genuinely do have compassion.
Water smells like fart in this area. Motel is spacious and clean. The price is right for the room. No soap included for your info.
