This is an iconic motel built in 1959 and restored and upgraded with great love and care. The staff was delightful and friendly, especially Glen. Very nice retro motif touches and super comfy.

Extremely clean room & comfortable king bed. Nice wide parking space for my car, so that no one could open their doors into my doors or fenders.

Staff was great, room very new and clean, and grounds manicures. Location very convenient. Check in time was limited from 3pm - 10pm. We had plans for the day during those hours. However, the manager on duty was very helpful in helping us get a room before 3pm. We really appreciated his help to accomodate our need.

Great Remodel

Very clean and great remodel! Perfect stopover for visiting friends up north. You can tell that they really did a thoughtful remodel: fresh paint and simple touches. Pool and bowling alley are added benefits. You get 10% off the bowling alley, food and drinks.

Good for a short stay.

For a short stay, the accommodations were great. But the walls were too thin. Our neighbors checked in after midnight and their conversing was too loud for us. Having light sleepers was in conflict with the loud talking. And having to get up in 5 hours was an effort in lost sleep even if the beds were comfy.

Nice, clean place

We enjoyed our stay. Our room was nice and clean. The room was a little tight for 4 with the 2 queen beds but everything was comfortable and the room felt like new even though it has been a few years since it was renovated. Definitely worth the price we paid.
