Motel with hotel prices

Would suggest adding more large towels for 4 people in a room and fixing the ac unit in 105. We noticed the room seemed to be updated recently so understand there might have been a few glitches. Overall a decent stay.

Updated motel

The hotel looks to be somewhat updated recently. The vinyl flooring needs a good cleaning and the ac unit in 105 is very loud when sleeping. Beds and pillows are fairly comfy. I would suggest the rooms be serviced every other day instead of every 3rd since there are not enough towels for 4 people. We appreciated the ice machine and coffee in the nearby lounge.

Double charged us and won’t refund

Double charged us and never refunded. I called at least 4 times and left a message. The manager never called me back. We used to stay here twice a year but won’t be back. I’m sure the owner will be responding to this review with they gave a refund. NO THEY DID NOT. I know how to read my bank statements. I have given you since April to refund-and now this is June.

Good choice!

Our room was very clean and it was newly renovated in beautiful colors that created a relaxing atmosphere. The television offered many channels. The owner was very helpful in letting us know how and when to get into our room. The beds were comfortable and the water in the shower was nice and warm! The location and price were good for what we were doing. Highly recommend for a quiet night's sleep.

I loved getting the code to access room and have a swift check-in with receipt just emailed to me. We had an ice bucket in the room, but were never able to find an ice machine with which to fill it which was a little sad. The tub was super slick and both my son and my Mom fell in it. I would have had I not put a towel inside the tub to help with a little bit of traction.

Seems that the property is undergoing mayor upgrades and the units look way nicer than on the current pictures. The units have almost everything new and are super nice and comfortable (please don't ruin them!). They just added a pick nick gondola and a fire pit that we got to use for the first time. Location is convenient for fishing trips or any other events going on around the area. Will not be your ideal family vacation destination for sure but it will host you for a day or two while you do a tour.

They are finishing their remodeling and have added new AC ,floors, beds, furniture,micro wave, fridge , desk and chairs and coffee maker and TV . Great remodel from last year stay (retro idea job, I should have opened the window for new paint smell)! Only issues ; Take off the old key fob on the wall , I spent 10 minutes trying to open it before seeing the touch door -keypad !! Replace the shampoo foil packs with a wall pump or screw on bottle. They are impossible to tear open when wet ! lol . Thanks for everything, nice to meet you Sue and Heather :-)
