Second time I have stayed here. Great price. Quiet. Exceptionally clean rooma, complimentary breakfast, and great staff. I totally recommend this place! The duck friends that hang out in the parking lot are a bonus as well. Who doesn't like ducks?

The hotel was good - little dated but clean and served the purpose. But best part of the stay was the domestic ducks that came up to me when we were loading up the car. They are snacks out of my hand. If you like ducks - book here.

Great staff, comfy beds, good budget motel

Stayed at this location at the beginning and the end of a faĺl break trip. First stay was great, no problems. Excellent service. Day host told us about a beautiful waterfall just a short drive away. Second stay we had issues with the A/C in 2 different rooms but staff was great and got it all straightened out. Beds super comfortable. Breakfast basic. Coffee good.

We were given a room which by the musty smell had not been used in some time. Toilet seat fell off leaving exposed screws. Toilet tank lid did not fit leaving tank open. Mold along edge of tub. The air conditioner sounded like a jet engine. Carpet was disgusting.The girl at the front desk did not seem to know what she was doing. One member of our party uses a cane and they wanted to give us a room on the third floor, no elevator. Construction equipment in many parking spaces.

There was no one at the front desk. I had to call the hotel to see if anyone could come to the desk. The room was not ready at check-in time. Overall, the staff was pleasant, engaging and very interested in sharing information about the city and what activities were available. They just seemed very disorganized. The room was large and seemed clean. However, we found a single immature cockroach walking around in the sink. The internet was painfully slow. A luggage cart would have been a great amenity, as the distance from the lobby to many of the rooms is significant.

Do NOT recommend

The first room they gave us smelled nasty (like mothballs). The next room was not great but didn’t smell as bad. The carpet was nasty (would've dare walk on it barefoot). Across the street was a burnt up mobile home with other mobile homes that were falling apart.
