Recommend this Motel!
It was very good. Couple small things which I didn’t mention to the staff. Bathroom door would not catch to shut the door. Sink dripped. Both my husband and I developed a stomach virus and I wouldn’t even let the housekeeping staff in the room to clean the room or bathroom. They did bring me sanitizer, plastic bags to put soiled towels in, and anything I asked for.
