Not the fanciest place but it was clean. They could use some new carpet. The beds were very soft. But sheets were nice and not too stiff (like some motels are) a plug on the outside to plug our EV in would have been nice but it’s all good. It was nice to have a fridge in the room. Overall not too bad of a stay, for the price. Staff was very kind!

This is the only motel in this town. It is older but is kept clean and they put fresh towels and make beds daily. What I didn't care for is there were 3 pick up trucks that would park in front of my room in the evening, and men were sleeping in the trucks but would leave early in the morning. It is expensive for no amenities and being in a rural area with nothing around and the TV did not work.

Was not nearly up to the 9 rating on reviews. No outlets in convenient places. Very outdated. Holes in cutains. Doors didn't seal well.

We had a great stay at The Village Motel. The owner was very accommodating and friendly. He let us check in early for a special event. Our room was recently remodeled - freshly painted and new sink in bath. It was clean and beds were comfy. Parked right at our door and it was very quiet. Highly recommend!
