The friendliness of the owner, the fact that he thought enough about his customer to warn me to be aware of the many deer encounters there had been. Very personable!

The room and bedding were clean, bed was comfortable, TV and Internet worked well. This was not an expensive stay, and very much worth the money I paid.

This place looked fine. The one star negative is for Expedia as I always get a room that takes pets and this time something changed and when I got there the place did not take pets. Now time to deal with Expedia

The motel is a time capsule from the 1950's and is a fun place to stay. many of the other guests who gathered outside their rooms and talked until after 4:00 A.M. and therefore made it difficult to sleep.

Clean but outdated
Clean and orderly, but old and outdated with little upgrade. It is accordingly cheap if one needs to save money.

2 star motel with 5 star service attitude
Maahir was great. I arrived after midnight with a reservation and he was very friendly and welcoming. The motel is a bit older (50’s maybe?) and needs a little tlc, but the room comfortable. Even the late train going by reminded me of growing up a block from the tracks back home.

The people who helped me were extremely friendly and accommodating. They even shoveled off my front entrance from the snowstorm from the night before. My room was very clean and fresh.

Not so great.
This is a tired old motel on it's last legs. Needs basic maintenance. The blanket on the bed was old and nubby with loads of different hairs on it. Gross. Check in guy was very friendly and accomodating but we wished we had spent a few more bucks and gone elsewhere.
