Just a small hotel. Desk is friendly and outgoing. Rates are reasonable for an overnight stay. It does the job but would consider other places for an extended stay of 3 days or more.

Great place friendly staff and owners I had a problem with my tv they had me another one within an hour they also offer weekly rates good restaurant next door and a truck stop across the street only reason I'm giving 4 stars is it's kind of remote and I didn't have a vehicle at the time to get around but all other aspects of my stay where accomodating if your looking for a quite place to get some rest this is it

Kingsville Motel has smoking and non-smoking rooms. Small refrigerator in room but no microwave. Bath towels are very small and rough, there was 2 small bars of soap and 1 small packet of shampoo. I didn't think the bed wasn't too bad (but my boyfriend did have a back ache when he woke up), but the pillows were not very fluffy and there was only 2 of them, for the size of them, it would've been nice if there had been 4. Overall the room served it's purpose and was clean. Rates are reasonable. This motel is close to a couple gas stations/stores(with Subway, Burger King and a diner in them), also there is a restaurant next door.

Nothing special or boujee. It has all the amenities for a basic room. Could use some updates but it's quiet, safe, and very convenient to the highway.

The ideal highway adjacent motel. It's clean, inexpensive, and the beds were decently comfy. Sure it's certainly dated, but that's part of it's charm. It's like going back in time for a night.

This is not a modern place but it is CLEAN. And when I say clean I really mean clean. There wasn't a smudge or hair anywhere. I stayed with my five year old and I will be back when I make this trip again. It was budget friendly and the clerk was wonderful.

Oh I loved this little place! You say "outdated" I say retro! It was the perfect spot to sleep for the night before getting back on the road. Definitely the right price. Clean and cozy. Beautiful quilts on the beds. Nothing fancy, old TV, and perfectly retro decor. My family said "it was perfect for a motel straight out of 1964!" Lol ... I loved every quaint aspect of it. Would definitely stay again! We have a lot of gadgets to plug in and out was hard to find enough outlets but that's my only "complaint" ... great night of rest.

Clean, good price. Stayed with two kids and were comfortable. Neat retro exterior, could use more retro touches in the rooms. I'm picky and would stay again. Love having my car right outside my door.
