This has to be the most homely, cozy place we stayed at on our travels this time. The room was well decorated, with comfortable furniture and the bed was made up warmly for the cold nights. Everything we needed was there and the staff/owner was friendly and helpful. The motel was well situated near amenities. We both felt safe and relaxed - it has a lovely ambience.

The decor is dated and a bit kitschy but is well kept and I love all the little touches such as interesting magazines and chocolates on the bed. Very comfy mattress and pillows. I travel for work and this place is my go to, Its affordable and I feel cosy, comfortable and safe after a long day. The proprietor is lovely and clearly cares about his guests experience!
