I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, especially since it was a last-minute stop during a long drive. The room was clean and comfortable, which was perfect for a quick overnight rest. The service was outstanding, with helpful staff who went the extra mile. However, I wish the Wi-Fi had reached my room better, as it was a bit spotty.

Our stay at the Park Drive Motel was perfect for a quick road trip stop! The rooms were clean and comfortable, and we appreciated their pet-friendly policy, which made our dog feel welcome. The staff were incredibly accommodating, making check-in a breeze. You can't beat the overall value for money, especially with the added touch of a breakfast basket. The only downside is that it’s a bit far to walk into town, but it’s just a short drive away.

I had a great stay at this motel, which offered excellent value for money. My room was clean, spacious, and pleasantly quiet, making it an ideal overnight stop. The friendly management added a personal touch, but be mindful that the surrounding roads could use some upkeep. Overall, it was a solid choice with convenient access to local attractions.

I found this hotel to be a solid choice for a quick stopover. The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly, making a last-minute booking easy. The room was clean and the bed was comfy, which is just what I needed after a long drive. However, the amenities weren't extensive, and the overall feel of the place was pretty basic. Still, it offers great value for the money and is pet-friendly, which is a big plus for travelers with furry companions.

I had a decent stay at this hotel while traveling along the highway. The rooms were quite basic but clean and comfortable enough for our family. Although the area felt a bit unsettling at times, the service from Daniel made a positive impact on our experience. Overall, it was a good stop, but the location could use improvement.
