Was very nice and seemed to be recently updated! Pretty quiet room and heat worked well, had to turn it down a few times! Staff was super nice at check-in, grabbing a coffee and at check out.

The stay was excellent! The rooms were recently renovated so they were very comfortable. The bed was super comfortable as well!

This is 2nd or 3rd time I've stayed here and the rooms are always very clean and the staff is very friendly. Would highly recommend.

Checked in later around 9:30 PM and staff was very kind and happy to help. Room was as expected. The only thing I wasn’t aware of is that a train rail is right adjacent to the property—was only woken up once at night from the train and I blame myself for not researching the area well enough beforehand! Ultimately it was a very nice stay with wonderful staff.

This place is not wonderful, it’s a room with a bed and tv. No amenities other than a breakfast sandwich and coffee. 2 of the 4 days we stayed they didn’t have the meatless offering on the menu. To make matters less wonderful they didn’t even offer to substitute something else

room was very clean, beds were very comfy and not having to get out of the car to check in and out was great

Bed bugs!!!! And when brought to attendants attention- she got nasty !! AVOID!! Complaint has been filed

There are active train tracks next to the motel so it was pretty noisy. And you really don’t get a breakfast, but the room was nice and clean.
13.12.2025 Deborah
comfortable and spacious bed. room was clean and staff was very friendly. complimentary drip coffee was meh but otherwise was everything else was pleasant. Only real complaint is the curtains; they’re thin and let light in and you can literally see right through them into the rooms so be careful 😅

Location is in a busy area with plenty of shopping spots in walking distance.

Other than the air conditioning smelling musty and the light bulb being burnt out, it was perfect! The area is safe and within walking distance to OSU. The staff was friendly, and the unique breakfast taking advantage of the attached café, is a significant feature. There are no laundry or fitness facilities, so if you are looking for those amenities should stay elsewhere.
