    Motel had everything I needed for my comfort Location was OK although it could be be updated to more modern furniture look. Decent size but lacked appeal

    Didn’t have accessible rooms. Bathroom just had rail near toilet. Tub n shower none. N the bed positioned blocked my wheelchair from entering bathroom. Staff tried but didn’t help much. Not ideal place for disabled travelers.

    We've stayed here twice now and love it! The rooms are comfortable and immaculately clean. The shower pressure is great and gets hot. That's really all I ask for in a room ? We travel a lot in this area and this is the best place We've found, especially for the price!

    Great little motel. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Building is old, but well maintained and very clean. Area is quiet and felt very safe. Not many grills or amenities, but was just what I was looking for.

    4/5

    It was quiet to rest. Everything I needed was provided - an iron, a hair dryer, extra sheets and towels. Pleasant and hospitable staff. The room was clean, as were the linens. But the decor already requires some interior refreshing. It's quite suitable for a simple stay and a place to stay for a few days. I missed having a washer and dryer on site, but the manager provided an address where this could be done.

    The place was no Hilton but was very clean and well lit. The owner was supper nice made sure the room was to my liking they have 360 cameras around the motel. Again very well lit and very quiet. Stayed 3 days

    Despite the motel's age, our stay was okay. The clean, freshly painted room, dusted surfaces, and a comfortable bed with cleaned linens created a surprising rest. Overall, property was well-maintained. The only unexpected aspect was conducting business outside- through a window – a minor inconvenience, easily overlooked given the overall positive experience.

    owneri believe puts genuine care into what he does. That said, the area isn't very good which means unsavory characters. I had one guy try to enter my vehicle while I was in it! One complaint I read about was small towels, and that's very true.

    Not the place you wanna stay at if you gonna stay a few days. There is no WiFi it’s just a place to sleep if you need to rest for the night. Owner was friendly. Felt safe going to sleep there and the bed was comfortable

    Would someone please enlighten me as to why this property gets such excellent reviews on Expedia? It’s old & shabby & the front desk people weren’t particularly friendly - had to conduct business thru a window while standing in the cold wind. Room is adequate but also old & shabby - only thing modern about it is the door lock. Plugs in room are all loose & likely a fire hazard. Haven’t used shower yet, so don’t know about hot water availability, but towels are thin. Not impressed & I’m now worried about the next couple bookings I’ve made based on Expedia reviews!

    What a great experience! My family and I stayed here for an affordable hotel to stay while vending at a 3 day festival downtown. This was the perfect choice! The gentleman that runs the hotel stayed up for our very late check in and was very courteous and friendly. Room was clean and comfortable, no frills, but just what we needed. Felt safe and the place was quiet at night. Excellent service!! Would definitely stay here again!!
