The property was in good condition and my room was in good shape and had some recent remodeling of the bathroom and sink. My only problem was trying to find where to check in. When you actually book and get your email you say that there are special instructions that you go into the restaurant/bar to check in. I called them to make sure I went actually in the front door and you do. Then I had chosen this hotel over another because it had a refrigerator and microwave in the room, but when I got to my room, there was neither. I called back up there and they did send a manager down then he went back up to get an English speaking manager who promptly moved me to another room. It all worked out fine and I was pleased with the room. I slept really well because I did not hear any interstate noise or a lot of noise from the restaurant or other businesses nearby. Now that I know the check in procedure, I would probably stay here again. And the food looked good at the restaurant. I just had leftovers I needed to eat that’s why I needed the microwave. I also had a refrigerator in my van, but it doesn’t run while my vehicle is parked so I needed to get some things in the refrigerator. Again, they were very helpful getting me transferred over. Be sure to specify you want a room with a fridge and microwave

I do hate to give negative reviews but I'll try to be objective. It was a basic room; only one trash can in the bathroom, cigarette burns on the bed cover, lots of dust and bottle caps and stuff under the beds. Other than that fairly clean. The AC system is very effective but LOUD. I mean like sleeping next to a diesel truck with the motor running. We travel with earplugs so even though I could hear it, I slept fairly well the first night. The wife, not so lucky. Even with her special earplugs she got very little sleep. Considering the hotel is next to a gas station, I10 is close by and the road by the hotel is traveled by the people from the small towns around to access I10, it was fairly quiet, the first night. You check in at a restaurant and the staff there is very friendly, however, they do everything by hand so its slower than most places. Big omen. The second day we worked long and hard and were exhausted. Woke up around 4 and the AC did keep me up. Then around 6, I think there were heavy trucks in the parking lot, very noisy. Finally went to sleep but at 730 woke up to very loud knocks at the door. The cleaning lady accused us of not having paid for the second night. I told her we had. She demanded to see our receipt so she could take a picture and send it to her boss lady. Again she said we had only paid for one night.When I produced the receipt, she said, oh you paid on line? I said yes, PREPAID! So she took the picture, apologized and left. We won't stay here again

I've stayed in a lot of places with higher rates, but none have been so clean. It is obviously an older property, but it is well maintained.
There was a mix up about my reservation (not sure if it was Expedia or the staff), but the staff bent over backward to straighten it out while I had a much-needed meal at their restaurant. They have great food with friendly service and low prices.
If I had to say anything negative about my stay, it's that I wish the water pressure in the shower was as high as mine at home.
All-in-all, my stay was a very good experience, and I will definitely be staying there again anytime I'm in the area.

I was forced to check in so late (5 AM) as I had to start 5-hr driving late (after 11 PM) due to flash flood and I called the motel at 6 PM to inform them that and they said ok. I arrived at 5:30 AM and found no office and learned from a nearby store that the reception staff stays in nearby restaurant which was closed at that time and no one was there. I called the motel and got no answers so I was about to leave but two cleaning staffs showed up at 6 AM and one girl helped me to check in by making phone calls. That was a terrible experience!!!!!!

I did not like the fact that you have to check in from outside in the middle of the night where it is scary. I had to ask around where the office was because there was no sign. It is also a restaurant. Then on my second night there, they were banging on my door saying that i had not paid for my room. He was screaming for us to get out. This was after midnight. Totally scared us. I had to show the receipt from check in and my bank showing i had paid through Expedia and the amount pending. The gentleman apologized afterwards, but it should never have happened. I will never stay there again. I had to change rooms because my room was next to a group of kids that were there just to party. I traveled a long way and was really tired and did not want to have to listen to kids partying all night. So the only other room wS a smoking room which i did not enjoy at all.

For those who check in and never have. Be sure to go to the restaurant at the bar! Does not say anywhere and I had to ask the housekeepers. But other than that it was all good except you hear everything outside and the guest staying where just loud leaving and coming as well driving off loud. If that’s something you don’t mind then go ahead and stay but if you’re looking for a goodnight rest then don’t unless you have ear plugs

Smelly rooms

Pulled in parking lot and read sign, \"Motel Office at ExpressGas.\" Walked 30 yards in cold to find it. Got key and walked 30 yards back to car, then drove to front of room 110. Room stunk badly. Walked 60 yards back in cold and said, \"We asked for non-smoking room.\" They graciously gave me a key to 111. Walked 60 yards back in the cold and unlocked 111. An old man smoking a cigarette was startled and wanted to know why I was coming into his room. I apologized and walked 60 yards back in the cold and explained the situation. They graciously gave me a key to room 121. Drove another 30 yards to park in front of room. Key didn't work. Walked 90 yards in the cold back to office. They re-programmed the key and sent someone with me. Finally got in.Room smelled like smoke, too, only not as bad as previous rooms.
