This is a remodeled older motel that is well maintained, clean & very comfortable for an overnight stay. They have beautiful hanging flowering plants and colorful chairs & table with flowers outside each room. The owners are very nice & welcoming. There are trails behind the property & a grill, picnic table with supplies on one side. The road that is in the front can be noisy, but has little to no traffic on it during the night.If you are a large person, the shower is small and you might have difficulty fitting into it. It works well for us. We have stayed here before and will do so again when passing through.

Easy check in and you could tell the owners took care of the place. Only issue was road noise but the ac unit drowned it out pretty well

Great little stay
We had a wonderful stay here! Comfortable room with darling porch and room decor. The room still had trash from the previous person and the bathroom could have used a once over. Other than that it was comfortable and fine for two nights for us!

I love staying at the Hillcrest Inn. I have stayed here becore and it's truly a hidden gem. The rooms are very clean and modern with a cabin outdoors vibe. The bathrooms are very spacious and has all moden amenities. I love the old school motel physical key on the keychain as well. If you are passing throthe area and need a safe quiet area for a very affordable rate, the Hillcrest Inn is the place to stay.
