Very clean, efficient space. Quick and easy for my son and dog to stay. We got snowed in during a storm and they were quick to get things plowed and helped everyone get out safely. Thank you for a clean and safe trip.

The room was clean. No coffee available in the room or in the lobby, staff suggested the coffee shop down the block. Came back to the hotel after dinner and found the lobby desk closed with a rollup door.

Room 11 was ridiculously adorable! Impeccably clean. And Michael answered my call and texts promptly. We want to stay here again in the summertime. (I know some reviews complained about the road noise, but what did they expect from a “motel”. It’s in the name. It was fine for us.)

This property suited my purpose of having a base for exploring. Was clean. Some improvements were done but don't expect a new property. Although on the main highway which was very loud at times, I was able to sleep. I would like to suggest a hand held shower head for the shower. I am a short person and the shower is SMALL, I had a hard time maneuvering to not get constantly drowned by the shower. Also, I never saw anyone that worked (or property owners) at all. I assume they were around somewhere. Overall, I'd say about a 7 out of 10. The first thing I always look at is the cleanliness and it was a clean room and property.

This is a reasonably priced basic motel so it doesn’t have a lot of amenities but it does have a well cared for property and is a very clean and comfortable place to spend the night. It was a good place to take our dog with a nice large backyard area. We enjoyed the quick check-in and checkout arrangement which didn’t need in person staff although they were available by phone. Our room didn’t seem to have air conditioning but the evening was cool enough to have windows open. We stayed there last week one night and we were pleased to go back again for another night on our way back home. We would be happy to stay there again.

This small very reasonably priced motel was given mostly excellent reviews and was listed as pet friendly and we were traveling with a dog. We were excited to see that they also didn’t require an extra payment for our dog so we decided to give it a try. We were really pleased that it lived up to the positive reviews. It is very well cared for, tastefully decorated with nice towels and comfortable beds. Although the rooms are not large they were fine for our needs. They have a nice large area behind the motel and away from the highway for dogs to get some exercise and care for their needs. The motel is right long the main highway and there is some traffic noise but we did not find that to be a problem for us. We slept very well. There were fewer amenities such as no boxed tissues, and only dry creamer in the bedroom and they noted that toothbrushes and toothpaste were not available but those things were not issues for us. Although we prefer to have someone in the office to great us, they have a very good system for checking in and are available by phone to answer questions and help with needs. We would we happy to stay there again especially if we were traveling with our dog.
