Basic amenities for an older motel but at $150 a night cheaper than up on the main strip. It certainly served its purpose!

Clean and everything worked fine. No clogged or slow drains. Couldn’t quite figure out how the thermostat worked. The heater would come on and worked fine and then later it would be blowing very cold air.

Although the hotel was clean, it was definitely disappointing. Room temperature was hard to contro. Breakfast was terrible with no milk or cream for coffee. We stayed thinking we would be walking distance to downtown. Not walkable. For the price we paid, should have stayed in Birch Run since we had to drive anyway.
