My stay at the Fountain Inn

The staff is very friendly, welcoming and accommodating to the services they offer. They allow pets, which is a plus. The room was spacious and very nice for the price. The bed was huge and comfortable. There's two padded chairs, a small couch, a small table, several lamps, a flat screen TV, a large mirror, coat rack, and a personal microwave and fridge to use. I believe there were some drawers and a small cabinet that the fridge and microwave sat on. Since I didn't utilize them, I'm not certain. The fridge is pretty spacious for it's size. In the fridge, there is a small section on top, inside, big enough for some frozen tv dinners. The bathroom was nice and clean. Two towel racks, a small shelf and a mirror by the sink. A few rolls of toilet tissue and a bar of hand soap was provided. My only concerns was that there was no hot water, which they did inform. The rug and some of the chairs were covered with pet hair, prior to my arrival. Despite that, if I was to visit again, I would book at this Inn.

Just keep driving

Definitely the absolute worst motel experience I have ever had. Avoid at all costs. The place looks abandoned and it’s dirty. I got so sick from staying in the room I had to take antibiotics for a week. I have no idea how this place even stays in business.

Don’t stay here

There was no air conditioner. The bathroom lights didn’t work. The television didn’t work. It was dark, dated and smelled bad.

It was easy to travel to because our house was near. It seemed ok from the outside like a regular motel but there was no breakfast (they only had a broken coffe machine a microwave and “english muffins”) The beds were SUPER UNCOMFORTABLE
