Our 3 yr. Old grandson was traveling with us and we needed to get out and stop. The motel was conveniently located along our route and has a restaurant on the property, so it met our needs for the night- late arrival, early departure and the ability to get food quickly. It’s also pet friendly and we travel with our dog, so that’s a plus. It’s an older property, pretty rough, carpet needs replaced, microwave door was broken, but we were finally able to get it to work. The beds and sheets were clean, so we were fine to sleep and that was our main objective.

Nice older hotel by wonderful local restaurant Clean room. Friendly staff with a convenient location. Matress was a bit hard (not pillowtop)for my taste. And in the morning we couldnt get hot water. Despite that thought, for the price, along with location and awsome jet tub it was worth it and we enjoyed our stay.

I needed a place to stay with only a few days notice, so this was my solution. The price was decent. The location is good. The bathroom shower still had the soap and shampoo in it from the last person that stayed there so it definitly wasnt cleaned. Human hair on the beds under the comforter wasnt very comforting either. It wasnt all bad, but it definitly wasnt cleaned well either. It will work in a pinch.

checked in and unpacked. Sink wouldn’t drain. We were told maintenance already left so gave us a different room we had to move into. 1st room was way nicer than substitute room. Shouldn’t it have been the other way around? By the way all the moving of rooms was done in 4 degree weather.
