Just here for the night. Very basic but all we needed was a bed and the bed is comfortable. Could not get the TV to come on, we like to get the evening news before turning in so we do not even know what channels it gets

Let’s get real. This is a 5-star for inexpensive motels. Very clean room. Fridge, microwave, and A/C. Convenient parking right next to room. All of which I wouldn’t expect for this price that beats the competition by a factor of 2!

We love the convenience and budget price of this little gem of a hotel. We've always had friendly staff, 3rd time staying. The quad room is the best deal ever!! Dog Friendly at a very reasonable price with nice, big grassy area to walk them. Best in town for us!!

Great little hotel at a great price with parking a few feet from your door. Pet fee only $15 for the stay (not per day) with nice grassy area to take them out. Friendly staff, restaurant on site, easy walking distance to other rooms, nice covered outdoor sitting area with grill, sink, etc...

Its a hidden gem . The laundry was right across from my room which made it very easy. The bed was comfortable , and the room was very clean. It was a refreshing change from some other motels.
The owner/manager did everything: checked people, fixed broken equipment and cleaned the rooms. He was always available

Clean and comfortable
Louis and his wife could not have been more accommodating and friendly.
Property has been renovated so even though it is an older property it was clean and comfortable.
