The parking was easy and quite available. Very little Security, not sure much was necessary. Incredibly difficult to understand the receptionist, as she only spoke very broken English. The room, although small, was clean neat, and very adequate for for my overnight stay.

Nice little old fashioned motel, staff was nice,rooms are small, big tv, patio is a bonus, my room had a sulfur smell coming from the bathroom that was strong, there was a few loud tenants that kept me up. Also, the headboard was double sided tape stuck onto the wall and it came off while I was attempting to go to sleep and scared the stuff out of me. It’s good if you want a basic hotel.

Parking was very close to the room and I could see my car in the parking lot from my first floor window. I had a patio that I, unfortunately, had no time to enjoy. Blackout curtains, no noise. TV, in room climate control that was quiet as well. Plenty of hot water in a very clean bathroom. I was lucky enough to meet the owners and two daughters. Wonderful people who took very good care of the Motel and guests. Thank you for a delightful stay.

Decent for a quick trip

Decent for a quick overnight trip. I was in town for wedding business so I just needed a place to crash. Clean, but a little noisy with sound carrying from office area and hallways. But overall decent.

Good budget hotel, but something bit me on my back while I was there. Can't substantiate where it came from 100% though. Just know they appeared the morning after I slept there on my lower back, about 8 of them. Hotel might just want go through their bedding with a fine tooth comb and make sure nothing is brooding, bug-wise, b/c it could get worse and dealing with it early might help if there is an issue. Otherwise, 4 stars.👍

The lady at check-in wasn't very friendly or helpful to my hearing impaired husband. The floor in our room was dusty & dirty on my bare feet. Nice shower. Otherwise a bare bones small room. Private porch/balcony" needs furniture to sit & enjoy coffee.
