We needed a place to spend one night that wasn't over $300 during tourist season so this was great. They had comfortable beds and a great breakfast with scambled eggs, hashbrowns & sausage. They also had toast & cold cereal & milk as an option. It is an older motel but met our needs nicely.

The room smelled a little smoky, but I think there was no smoking allowed so that was just probably older odors. Other than that a wonderful place to stay, great breakfast in the morning and super friendly staff. We got a ride to the airport from a very friendly man. We would stay there again.

The staff was accommodating and wanted us to have a nice stay. The driver for the shuttle was personable, and he even drove us to other sites in town. We really appreciated that. It's a family run business and they are working hard making updates. The room was fine- clean bathroom and clean and comfortable bed. Our room had recently been painted.

We like the shuttle service, especially with very late flight arrivals. Complementary breakfast was appreciated, though the dining room was small. The rooms were clean, but smelled musty. Need updating.

John was very courteous, helpful and accommodating. Airport shuttle was a little bit rushed as there was only one driver for the hotel in the busy season. Older hotel located near Merrill airport which tended to be loud at times with overhead planes and jets. A surprising hot breakfast buffet with real food, not powder eggs. Will visit again.

Not a modern hotel, but I like supporting the local families. We felt safe and it was quiet. The shuttle was always accessible, staff was friendly and helpful, room was clean, and breakfast was better than average (with eggs, sausage, muffins, toast and jelly). The downside to breakfast was eating on a folding table or couch in the small lobby. I would not have a problem staying here again.

We were a little apprehensive driving to this place as it appears to not be a fantastic part of town...but it's obvious this motel has been renovated in the last so-many years. It's not modern by any means, but the work done is high quality. No paint chipping anywhere or anything like that. Everything was super clean including the exterior building and parking lot area. It's very well maintained. You can tell it's loved. Bed was comfortable. Would stay there again.

Accidentally had probably the best room in the place. Large King 206 with Couch/Futon. Room was clean and comfortable with fridge and microwave. Breakfast is simple. Hot (scrambled eggs, hash browns, sausage Pattie quarters) for 2 hours until it runs out. Plus cereal and a few muffins that were great. Also stayed the next night in a different room category and that rating will be lower.
