Everything was kept clean and the staff was friendly and very accommodating. We didnt have pets with us, but I know that it was welcoming to pets because we saw dogs everywhere and they were allowed in most of the shops. The shops were close by and were in walking distance. We had such a good time!

The property does accept pets, although we did not have one this trip. Staff was professional and friendly, we did not need much from them so our interaction was minimal. Room was clean and we had not complaints for concerns. It is nicely located right across from the main hot pools in the town. Everything is with in walking distance which is one of the reasons we love it here.

DELAINA L

This is a little old motel near the river. The staff makes up for what the rooms lack. Installation of some mirrors would be good because there was only one in the bathroom not near the outlets which are in short supply due to the age. Super clean with a deep tub and super hot water. The walls are thin so if you’re a light sleeper come prepared for that. It’s affordable and as nice as anything in the area plus you can walk to the hot springs across the street. You can walk the whole town and I recommend staying here and doing just that. I will definitely be back.

delightful staff. rooms are simply furnished and rough around the edges but the employees will do their best to fix it. our tv was locked on one channel and we couldn't figure out how to get it back to normal, and the kind lady at the front desk came over to try and help us fix it personally.
