i'm disapointed that this place can charge a competitive rate but do not offer even a small breakfast and most of the time no coffee is availlable. however, the staff is very friendly and this motel is convenient to the truck stop. the rooms are beautiful and always clean .

It is close to most things you could want. But not really walking friendly, and the parking lot could use some work.
