First, the lady at the front desk was fantastic, she was very nice and was able to find someone to come and actually clean our room after we had checked in and discovered it hadn’t been cleaned. I walked in to 3 bags of garbage by the door and several used qtips lying in the floor. There was hair all over the sink and it was generally gross. I wanted to like this place bc it was a bit of a departure from the usual chain holiday inns/hamptons we usually stay in, primarily because my 4 small kids haven’t ever stayed in a “motel” like I did when I was a kid and I wanted them to experience that. That being said, this place was a bit of a dump. One of the toilets wouldn’t flush all the way and one of the showers would not drain (it was ankle high in the tub after 3-4 mins) and the tub looked like it was installed in the 80’s. There were several holes in various places on the walls (prior unpatched holes from whatever was mounted there previously, not a “watch you while you sleep then kill you” kind of thing), trim boards were unattached, wall panels were bowed and coming off, and it looked like hadn’t ever been dusted. There were also large (>6’) water spots on the ceiling that had just been painted/popcorned over. There is a difference between “rustic but nice” and “this restoration was done using the cheapest materials we could find to just put over whatever was there before”. This place could be a gem if done right, which it certainly wasn’t. Disappointed :/

This is a really nice place to spend the night. Its a little old but its allso unique. Close to get off the road and food at your door you could say. Our room only had a pull down shade so was kinda worried about privacy. My daughter said her room and shatters for the windows.so that would have been nice. We would stay again
