Very clean and a decent option for a motel. Front desk staff were nice. Spent a couple of nights and the room assigned to us was very close to the office but we didn't mind. Good location with a number of restaurants nearby. Affordable, clean and you can park in front of your room. Will not hesitate to stay here again when we visit.

The room is clean and prepared well. My wife is allergic even to the lingering smell of pets or smoke, but she didn't have any issues staying in the room. AC works well, and we never had any issues during our stay.

Clean room and friendly staff. Surprisingly they didn't have any vacancies despite being in the middle of a whole bunch ot other motels in the area.(I had a reservation). I guess it means something. Family run motel. Close to shopping and dinning.

Room was suitable for our needs - we stayed overnight while travelling through. Had everything we needed. Beds were comfortable. Room had a bit of a musty smell and seemed to get warm fast without the a/c on. Fridge in room was welcome. Water temperature in shower was inconsistent (ran warm, hot then cold). A/c was really loud but appreciated as it was warm outside. Good location, easy to get around to restaurants, gas stations etc.

I would not hesitate to stay here again! Staff was extremely friendly & though it doesn't look like a lot from the outside, you can tell they have made a lot of improvements / updates inside the rooms. It was kept extremely clean throughout our stay. Shout out to Violet & her Apple Fritter recommendation at the Voyaguers' General Store & Dry house....best we've ever had!!!
