Worst dirtiest disgusting motel ever!! Walls, door, door handle, tv etc etc either has not been wiped clean in a long long time or it was wiped with dirty water ! Smudges and film on everything! TV screen was so dirty it had streaks and a thick film . Room smelled like cigarettes.. air conditioner did not blow cold and was very smelly/ humid air coming out .. bed had multiple layers of padding and sheets making it lumpy and disgusting.. asked for another room and this was given but second room worse than the first .. we did not say and left to go to a different motel. Having said all This I do want to point out the people running this motel were very nice .

Lovely staff a d restful sleep

Room was clean and comfortable. Staff were friendly and welcoming. Motel is pet friendly and there was some damage in the bathroom from a previous guest that is awaiting repair. Stall type shower so if you are a larger peraon, keep that in mind when booking. Overall a lovely stay, though. Reasonable price and convenient location. Thanks for s great stsy!

Stayed for one night and probably wouldn't stay again. The owners were very nice and helpful. The problem was we had a trailer with a dirtbike and boat. The people at the end of the motel were constantly walking up close to the trailer and we noticed a guy smoking probably crack through a pipe. Then started having a conversation with himself and getting up walking towards the trailer again. Didn’t know they were on septic and note above toilet says no toilet paper allowed down. So where would you like us to put that lol.. Supplying septic paper probably would have been a better option then regular toilet paper. Other than that it was clean and for a stopover its alright.
