Angela, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Zero frills, you-get-what-you-pay-for kind of roadside motel. Was clearly undergoing some major renovations when we visited at the end of the off-season. Owner was super friendly, welcoming, and helpful.
Elizabeth, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

They were doing some renovations on the property. The pool was very nice with a spa. One bad thing was the refrigerator would not freeze my ice packs.

Karl, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Very old motel

Very old motel, not well kept up. One room, refrigerator and micro on an old desk. No desk space, small over-the-air TV screen. Tiny bathroom, not too clean. High cost in a tourist-trap town.
Alvin J, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Beds were uncomfortable. Bathroom very small, shower narrow. Very old
Robert, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Dirty rvs in back people living there run down smells terrible. Pool dirty people hanging aroung smoking and drinking. No window in bathroom screen only. Feared for safety
