Bed linens smelled so clean! For the property’s age, it is in great shape and it was evident someone cleans very well!

A great value.
I enjoyed my stay at this nice family owned hotel, very spacious room with parking right outside my door, and quiet surroundings.
Only wished the ice machine was working when I was there.

Sufficient for one quick night stay. It’s a basic older place but met our needs. Breakfast was sufficient.

Room was ok for a night rest stop. Check-in staff was friendly and professional. Ladies running the morning breakfast were rude and lazy.
Wow, nice old history type rooms, really neat. Comfy & good supplies. Basic continental breakfast, but had French toast too. Was super clean. Note front desk has limited hours.

Our room was clean and our check in person was very nice and helpful. The bed was comfortable and the motel was quiet. Some furnishings were a bit shabby and the bathroom sink drain had no plug - don’t drop your toothbrush or an earring.
Stayed for 3 nights. Big room and reasonably comfortable. Bathroom was small and could be a bit cleaner. Friendly staff. The motel is just out of town but we did not mind. Overall good value for money
I loved the room. It was wood panelled and had vintage furniture and fittings which I really loved. It was comfortable and quiet, and the staff were so lovely. We would definitely stay again
This is a retro style motor lodge with pine paneling and beams. I love it! It's very comfortable and the towels smell amazing. I would definitely stay here again.
I must say I was pleasantly surprised at the condition of the room. The facility is obviously older but is in remarkable condition and you can see that the roof was just replaced. The room was very clean and nice. My only issue was the bed that was somewhere between plywood and concrete hard, but managed to get a decent night's sleep.
