I always stay here and it's great . It gets better every year as constantly updating . It perfect the location as you can walk to everything. If I could I would give it 10 stars instead of 5 .

Ok here we go. Arrived Friday afternoon. Within 2 hours some dude came riding a bike across the parking lot with his entire ass hanging out and the worker yelled at him to pull his pants up to which he replied F YOU. the other workers now yelled at him to leave then properly which he also replied with F YOU. There was a screaming match for about 20 minutes while the one female worker was telling the guy to hit her. Very unprofessional and I pondered calling the cops. The next day a worker came to our room and apologized for what happened. Apparently the guy is the town drunk. The location of this property is amazing but now i understand why it was vacant. The place is absolutely disgusting and dirty. Dirty sheets dirty pillows just disgusting. The WiFi doesn’t work at all. Couldn’t stay connected for more than 5 mins. Was told at check in that “we offer complimentary pastries and coffee from 7-11” we went over at 715 and the place was locked and nobody around. The workers all live there so that was weird as well, guess they were still sleeping. Most rooms are “live in” rooms for some shady people. It’s more of a halfway house then a motel. People were hanging out outside all hours of the night talking. I seen one couple check in and go to their room only to check out and leave 25 mins later. This place is absolutely disgusting. Go somewhere else.

Mattress wasn't very comfortable, bathroom toilet was very low to ground. The staff was very friendly whenever I needed to go to the office for something. I would still recommend it to people.

Vintage Motel in Prime Historic Location

Good points: room recently refurbished with new carpet and paint. New mattress was just right. Great ice machine! Outside currently being repainted. Curtains need to be replaced; needs a few more clothes hooks in the bathroom, and also a small table or fold-up luggage rack. But as a budget-priced motel in a prime location, it served my purpose. I do wish people would not smoke or gather outside of rooms...needs a designated outdoor smoke area. They are preparing the pool for the season. A microwave in the room would be great. Delightful staff.
