Super cute little place. Very basic and small room, but very comfortable and has everything you need! We were close to plenty of places for food, and it was a perfect stop to make our drive easier the next morning. Would definitely stay again.
We were impressed with the room layout for a motel. Could use an update but it was clean and stocked generously with hygiene essentials. Very close to where we wanted to visit, Cross In The Woods.

Clean but not very private
The space was clean and had a nicely updated design. I liked the fact that there were 2 rooms for sleeping. However the main room was not a great sleeping space. The bed is right next to the window in which vehicles are parked about 5 feet from the door. People were noisy walking by, talking, and making noise while coming and going with room & car doors opening and shutting. Some sort of sound insulation would be helpful. In addition, the curtains did not fully cover the window. Even 1 more panel of curtain would have at least covered the gaps between curtains. This meant we did not feel comfortable changeing in the bedroom space and instead changed in the bathroom. It would have been very easy for someone walking by the window to peer into the room. This also made it uncomfortable while laying in bed with the bedside light in direct view of the gap in the curtains.
We only stayed 1 night as we were passing through. And that is probably all I would want to stay. It worked for us this time. I appreciated the welcome letter that included information about the wifi as well as food recommendations.
