Kenneth, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A simple but comfortable old school motel. Front desk was incredibly friendly, bed comfy, room clean and had all we needed. Nothing super fancy, but room was quiet enough at night for a good night sleep. It's nice that this type of motel is still around when chains seem to be taking over everywhere.
Timothy, 1-night trip

Friendly service with clean and cozy rooms. Easy access to the rest of town.

Carolyn, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It’s a very remote town so surrounding properties, dining options very limited. The streets were literally empty it was kind of weird but the remoteness of the area explains that

Comfortable and very little noise from upstairs or neighbors. Breakfast area clean and tidy. Very basic, but a good start for the day. Friend ly staff.
Brenda, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Parking was adequate, but spaces are narrow. Staff at checkin and checkout were great. Even gave me what I needed to clean bugs of my windshield. Furnishings we're functional but a little old. Thermostat wouldn't properly set the temperature, though temperature was acceptable.
