From the National Register nomination

Modern two-story building (motel wing? apartments?) of cinder block with stretcher-bond brick veneer. The shed roof cantilevers over a second-story cantilevered balcony, which has a decorative metal railing. The plate glass and metal panel room fronts are divided by brick-faced piers that are probably the ends of cinder block partitions between the rooms. The brick is red and two shades of tan and is decoratively laid in irregular patches (the two shades of tan may indicate alteration). The building connected to the rear of the historic McCorkle House, used in the late 1950s as a rooming house, which was recently torn down. A row of boxwoods associated with the front walk of the former house survive.
