Very good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Only room left on the “good” side of the place with 2 beds was a smoking room. Don’t smoke and never have - room smelled disgusting. Property/rooms are very dated.
This is an older property but the room was fixed up pretty well, bed was comfortable, things were clean. Nothing fancy here but was an OK budget priced overnight stay.
A nice quiet stay in a small town. The owner was on site and very friendly and helpful when we had a question about the tv settings. He made coffee and was also pleasant to talk to.
The folks who run the motel have always been helpful and pleasant. The back side of the motel is very close to the property line but there is room to park, but there's nothing scenic about it----and I'm not looking for scenery anyway.
One thing i wish could be done: One must driver over a street curb to get onto the property and off of it. A cut in the curb for a smooth entrance and exit would be appreciated.
Otherwise, the most recent stay---as has always been the case---was good.
Quiet and Friendly. Had an issue with privacy door hanger being on the door and housekeeping coming in anyway. Spoke to owners and it was taken care of immediately.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
There's a reason the photo is of the bathroom mirror, but you probably already guessed that. Look, if you're on a fishing trip or need a cheap (kind of) room for the night and you've done this kind of place before, then it's fine.
