Free parking but limited spaces with tight parking spots. Room is very basic but clean. Can sometimes be noisy because the property is so small.

I arrived late. I think I woke the manager up. The remote was not in sync with the TV so I had to call for help. Parking can be a problem as there are only 4 spaces and the manager uses one.

I was very happy with this choice. We had a 1 night stay and this was an affordable option that was better than my expectations. Possibly cleanest motel or inexpensive hotel I’ve ever stayed in. The people were nice, the decor was nice, and it had great water pressure in the shower, by the way. I would choose it again.

Affordable Kitsch

The place is unique and affordable for the area. Our only gripe was the thin walls that allowed us to hear our neighbors as they had a bit of a party after the bars closed. Loud voices went undeterred by management well past 3:00 am. But it happens. I’m not mad at my host so much as my self-involved neighbors.
