My stay was great. There was no kitchen in my room and wasn’t a pet room. But it was very clean. The staff was great! Area around it seemed undesirable but felt safe there. I would stay again.

The room was so clean! Cleaner than any room I have ever stayed in. Parking was great right next to the room easy to load and unload the car. The staff was great super friendly gave us all the information we needed to know lots of options for shopping and other things nearby. I would have to say even though it looks like an older property it was the best hotel we have ever stayed in , especially with the cleanliness.

The staff was very helpful and called us before we arrived to make sure they had everything ready for our arrival. Never had a hotel do that so that stood out to me. Room was clean and beds were comfortable, that’s what really matters, right?

Great place! A little "old school", but nothing wrong with that (example: solid brass key for the room). The room wasn't just clean, it was "Monica clean"! Keurig was a nice touch, and so was a tray of ice cubes in the freezer.
I would absolutely book here again next time I'm in Norman.

When you book with a traditional style motel you never know what you are going to get. It this case, you get a great value for your money. Upgraded TV, shower, clean room, friendly and thoughtful staff, all at a great price.
