Very clean and modern motel room. The building exterior itself is clearly dated but the floor, fixtures, windows, bed, bathroom have all been updated. It’s a good value for the money.

TOO MANY ISSUES Not a terrible place but too many problems during our two-day stay made for a negative experience. Here’s the list: Bathroom fan motor screeched when the light was turned on. The bathroom door was misaligned requiring an effort to push it closed. Internet did not work and the manager blamed my laptop (which worked in three other hotels during this road trip). No full-length mirror. Sink had no space to place anything wider than a cell phone. Shower soap dispenser required over fifty depressions for enough soap or shampoo, Housekeeping neglected to provide toilet paper or plastic cups. Footsteps from second floor guests were prominent. One tiny towel rack above toilet and none within reach of shower. I don’t like leaving negative reviews but this place was poorly managed.

A bit of noise from the central hallway at times. Wish there was a light breakfast option. Need to drive or moderate walk to locate breakfast. Overall, a very good value in a resort oriented town
