Older style motel but well kept. Owner was super friendly and nice. The room was small but worked fine for the one night we were there. Worst part was the main street in front of the motel was completely tore up from construction with dirt flying everywhere, obviously not the fault of the motel. We would stay again if ever passing through the area.
