Adequate for an overnight stay. Towels and shower curtain could use updating. The refrigerator in our room was so loud we had to unplug it so we could sleep.

Nice motel. Old but nice. Very very clean. You're in the country so things like a gravel parking lot or lobby/cereal/coffee bar can be seen as charming. No one on duty at the time of check out 8:30am. Dropped the key in a basket on counter. I would definitely stay there again. The only reason for a 3 star on the property ... some of the furniture needs to be either throne away or given a quality repair. Did I mention the place was very clean?

A nice place for a small community.

This is not a hotel chain. It is individually owned. Our room was in one of the pics of the king sized bed. It was clean and bright. These are fine rooms. I read reviews saying the rooms are dark. Not true. I read a review saying there was no where to plug in a phone. No. There are outlets. We were pleasantly surprised. My husband had sausages and cereal with coffee at the free breakfast. We ate at the restaurant. There were community locals there, also. Don't be afraid to stay here. There are no coffee makers in the rooms; but there's coffee in the lobby.

Complaints

The toilet lid and seat were only attaches on one side till i attached the other side. The shower curtian rod was bowed down, and should be bowed down. Those funky wall lights should have individual switches as well as the main switch. The refrigerator and the TV should not be on a switch. There is no coffee in the room.

Basic motel off the road. Clean. No frills. Mattress left something to be desired. Room lighting poor. Very few outlets. Electrical tape holding wall lamp together. TV: cable box hanging behind tv, did not work with remote. Baggie of stained but ‘clean washcloths’-stated to use for makeup-off putting. Bath Towels-very scratchy. Exterior entrance-not locked. Anyone could enter. Continental breakfast-coffee, weak and flavorless. Food choices limited

Clean and comfortable, but breakfast was sad

Clean and relatively comfortable. The "continental breakfast" was a joke! A couple containers of dry cereal, a fridge with a handful of milk containers, and cold coffee.

Considering I stay at 75-100 hotels a year, I have never left a bad review. However this place earned their review. Pillows are hard foam pieces, no local tv channels , breakfast stale dry cereal with warm milk, exit doors are not secure at night. No staff on duty and don’t answer the number you are instructed to call. Definitely a joke of a hotel
