The owners/management are so kind, patient, and helpful that’s why I choose to stay here for business and now relocating . Ma. Mai Le and an older man who cleans the rooms are a blessing. The gentleman who does building gardening/construction etc is so kind and attentive and truly shows his care and skills. The location is rough only if you do not have access to a car. Highly recommend this safe and clean space.

For anyone staying in Lincoln IL would know that the motels are quite expensive here, I usually stay at the Super 8 but even using all the deal apps if it is a weekend you are looking at 100$ a night, I try to come see my family as much as possible and that is just to much for just me and especially as costly gas and food is. This Motel has been here forever and is now remodeled! Not anything fancy but my room is nice compared to the Super 8 room I had on Thursday! Around 60$ a night even on the weekend and it is in a great neighborhood in Lincoln! Will be staying here from now on!
