Staff were really helpful, kind, and approacheable. Walls are a little too thin that we could hear the people from the other room snoring. Other than that the appliances were working great, shower is a little too tight for tall people to move comfortably, but overall we got what we paid for!

Nice place with a great staff

The staff is very friendly and helpful. The rooms clean and have clearly been updated recently. We did find a lot of light in the room from outside that was difficult to block, but we still enjoyed staying there and would happily go back.

I stayed here when there was a music festival going on in Dover. Other hotels closer were going for as much as $800 a night if you could find them at all. The owner of this place was super nice and accommodating. The rooms were clean and the AC worked great. Highly recommend.

clean and cool room in humid Delaware summer!

Stayed here with family as two couples in separate rooms. The location was perfect for an event we were attending at the motor speedway. Food option's, drug store and coffee spots in walking distance. Family owned and operated motel, secure & clean rooms, fresh linen offered daily, and friendly manager! Would return and recommend for future stay.

Great Stay

My flight into BWI arrived late and I had to learn to operate the GPS using my iPhone in the rental car; so, I arrived very late at the motel.I was greeted with a cheerful smile and a hearty welcome. The room was minimal but clean and comfortable. I enjoyed my stay. It had everything I needed.
