My room was behind the lobby so you didn’t hear the highway traffic much. New paint was nice, but the hotel is dated. The bathroom was especially small and beds were not comfortable. Walks are paper thin. You could hear talking, hairdryer, and walking in the surrounding rooms. Room was clean, although, we had to ask for additional sweeping, and call maintenance twice the first night. Waffle spot was the highlight for us.

The staff was friendly, it was clean. The only problem was when there were some people above us on the top floor who were quite noisy. The rooms weren't very sound proof or people were just being too loud.

This is a little older motel. We had a smaller room but sufficient for the time we were there. The bathroom is a very nice size but only had a sink, no counter space. There was certainly room for a small vanity which would have been really nice to have. The morning restaurant on site was good quick food. Very nice location for going to Olde Town to catch the trolley.
