Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The rooms are quaint, especially on the second floor. The rooms are basic and clean with fridge and microwave. The breakfast included at a cafe next door has a limited menu. The food was good, but greasy and basic. The motel in itself is fine for the money, but it’s on the Main Street and a little loud. Otherwise fine.

The room wasn't very clean. There was hair on the shower wall and toenail clippings on the carpet. Besides the bedding, I feel like the room wasn't cleaned after the last guests. It was convenient and the cooked to order breakfast was nice.
