We pulled into the parking lot and I was thinking I wonder how many people have been murdered here but we got a room anyway and so glad we did opened the door to the room and was very very surprised and impressed it was clean freshly painted nice floors and the bathroom was just as nice I'm handicap everything was easily accessible it had a roll in shower with a bath seat the guy on duty was very nice. I would definitely stay again so don't be fooled by the outside and enjoy a nice stay

We like the room, it's clean and spacious, and we love the price. We wish there was a blackout curtain to darken the room, the parking lot lights are bright and always on (safe!). The AC works great. Only regret is not checking in earlier to cool the room down before bed. Great spot though.

First impression of the room was great. The staff is awesome! The sheets always smell amazing. By far one of the best motels we’ve stayed at so far. Short trip to Walmart.

The rooms are clean, comfortable beds. Great prices. We got in late, the host was on site, so we only had to wait a minute to get checked in. The room was comfortable and very clean. The shower had decent water pressure. I would definitely stay again.

I went back and forth between 3 or 4 stars. I'm giving 4 because of the room and value. We got the family room and it was very spacious and a lot cleaner than I expected. It had a lot of space for my family to spread out and a nice little cozy, homey feel to it. I'm a pretty big germaphobe but the room itself was up to par, exceeded my expectations. Quiet area. The only thing that concerned me was the "creepy" vibe I got. The guy at the front desk was very nice. Nothing wrong there. Maybe it was because we pulled in at night, but it just gave me weird, eerie feelings. We had to go up a dirty, creepy stairway to a sketchy looking hallway to get to our room. But hey, I've been in sketchier motels. Overall it was a good stay. Loved how spacious and clean the room was.

Great place to stay! Didn't get the lady's name at the front desk but she was absolutely wonderful super attentive and friendly also very accommodating. The rooms and linens are great, extremely clean and fresh. The rooms are well updated and maintained, good water pressure in the bathroom, cold AC. Very close to grocery stores, liquor stores, gas stations, It's everything you need for a quick night on the road. Will definitely be staying here again next time I visit my family in Lamar.
