Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The bed was comfortable. The a/c just blew to the closet. The parking was awful, came back after dinner and cars, trucks were everywhere and anywhere they could sqeeze in. I had a paid room but no where to park. I would recommend assigned oarking for room!

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
A friendly greeting, a clean room with a fridge and microwave, snug but comfortable. There is a window AC unit I did not need to turn on. Not much can be done about the thin walls; you definitely hear the neighbors' conversation. There are two entrances to the lodge from Sudderth, both of them tricky to navigate from the busy main road. Even so, would certainly stay here again.

Excellent older motel that is well taken care off. Super quite. The ONLY recommendation is to install anti-slip decals in bathtub. As a 83 year old, I had to be extremely careful not to fall.

Bathroom was dirty. Staff were nice. Breakfast was packaged muffins and cereal. $385 for two nights seemed steep for what it offered. Was the last option available for the weekend. Would stay somewhere else if possible.

For the price point, it’s difficult to speak too poorly of this motel, but there was a noticeable musty smell in my room, which was fairly unpleasant. It wasn’t mold, but it smelled like the AC filter hadn’t been changed in ages. Beyond that, the room could have been in better shape. There was a broken lampshade in mine.
