It’s difficult to make a real comment when you only stay for one night. We didn’t use any other facilities other than the room, the only staff we saw were at check in and out. We would stay there again if we were down that way.

Our 3 night stay was comfy, the family room was a good size upstairs, roomy. Clean bathroom, looking new, big shower rain head. Easy access from back of Motel, parking on site. Good location for us, away from main city, we can easily get to where we want. Thank you for a comfy stay. Happy to return.

The cleanliness is out standing. I can be be very OCD. The staff are amazing, helpful and very considerate. If I had to stay there again I would highly recommend it. The only down fall there was no laundry access.

I recently stayed at this motel and had a mixed experience. The rooms were very compact but had everything we needed for a short stay. However, the iron bars on the windows were unappealing and made the place feel restrictive. The staff were somewhat friendly, but there is definitely room for improvement. Overall, it's a basic place to stay. The $500 deposit also put me out
