This renovated motel is extremely well run. Rooms are nicely updated and the entire property is spotlessly clean. The pool and deck are nice. Service was prompt and professional. We loved it.

My group had three rooms the week after New years and we were motivated by price and location. I did sent a local friend to scope it out before hand. The lobby was very busy with people using the game tables for cards and other games provided by the hotel. The large fireplace was a treat in the cool of winter. We gathered there almost every day. The other areas outside were very nicely furnished the first being a long narrow lounge area on the side of the hotel ,walking toward the back a very large pool area with free cabana beds and lots seating. This area was removed from the lounge area which was nice for the sound level if you wanted to read and relax. in the very back was other water features again segregated from the pool area. NICE layout. The building has been renovated from what looks like an old motor lodge.I was worried about security of the rooms from the pictures but quite please to see all rooms were accessed through the lobby area and secured by large mid century block walls. The rooms were nicely appointed and very clean. Great shower and bed . After all those are the most important things . Very walkable to all downtown. Enjoy this little Gem

Not Worth the Price

Experience was not worth the price. Air-Conditioning in the room made a mound sound whenever it was turned on. Check- out was set online at 11 am, but cleaning service tried to enter the room while we were still sleeping at 8 am.
