The hotel was neat and clean, but we were approached in the parking lot by people looking for cash. The pool is not in a central location and we had to leave between multiple buildings to get to it. The beds are smaller than a traditional double. The room was for four people, but realistically it was too small.

It was everything you’d expect—perfect for the night. A little older, but they do a great job keeping it clean and comfortable. The front desk was helpful and made check-in easy. No complaints for a quick stopover!

It is old. It is outdated in the most nostalgic way! My son was super excited about how clean it smelled and the car couch in our room. We splurged on the Elvis room and have no regrets!

With the other customer ratings, I expected better. It was unclear that this is a motel from the advertisement. Room has paint peeling from the ceiling over the bed, chips in the wall, really dirty walls, missing light fixture, burnt out bulbs, and chair in terrible condition. Toilet lid is cracked. Aspects just feel rundown and old. I wish I had chosen someplace else.
Strips peeling from the ceiling (this is directly over the bed)
Chair should have been replaced a while ago
Walls need to be cleaned
No light fixture
