The room was large, clean and had extra chairs. Also a kurig coffee maker which is not common. Staff was curteous. We only stayed one night so did not have the opportunity to use the hot tub or pool. While breakfast was included, it was a feozen breakfast sandwich which must be retrieved at the checkin counter. There plenty of extra snacks to choose from as well. We would stay there again

I understand it’s a roadside motel but the rooms were gross, hookers working on property & rooms by the hour. One addict who was pandering out I front of property approached us out of nowhere for a lighter while checking into our room. I had to buy cleaning products to clean room. Tv didn’t work but we tried to just stay away. Drain in stink didn’t drain. And it wasn’t even that cheap as what you’d think for that level that it actually was. From the photos it could be a hipster kitschy mid century motel but sadly it panders to the hustlers& addicts. It is sad. The Longfellow this weekend redeemed the stay in Maine from this stay.
