Just what I was looking for.

Enjoyed my stay. Nancy at the front desk was awesome and friendly people staying here. Was able to park my bike right outside the room. Bad storm last night, but I didn't hear a thing and slept great!

Our stay was good. The room isn't anything special, but it was an affordable option to the resorts in the area, and we just needed a place to sleep at the end of the day. Nancy was fantastic as a hostess, and she was eager to assist with our requests. The continental breakfast is spartan, but we weren't counting on it for our morning meal anyway. It was a small room, but it was clean and comfortable.

Very basic no frills

This motel is very basic. It offers no amenities. It needs quite a bit of maintenance and TLC but it is clean and the bed was comfortable. We needed a place to stay because we were in town for a wedding and didn’t want to make the 2+ hour trip home afterwards.

Right off the main road so easy to find. Easy check in and friendly staff. It was a comfortable stay although heaters could use some updating. I wanted to warm up the room a bit so I turned on the heater. It made such a strong odor I had to turn it off and open a window.

Just place to sleep.

There were some very loud guests, tv and some lights didn’t work. The microwave was very dirty with leftover food crumbs in it. Key cards randomly stopped working. The beds were comfortable. It’s just a place to sleep with earplugs.
