Check in was easy, very close to a few restaurants & grocery store w/in 3min drive
This could be a very nice place. It is broken down. There was no furniture in my room on the desk. They could do a lot better with simple things, but they choose to be the low cost provider. They low cost motel slept with the lights on so come out.

This property has potential but is not up to standards. Facility is old and needs major updating. We rented 3 rooms all were in similar co dition. TV's in 2 rooms did not work. There is no ice and no working vending machines the mgr did give ice he had. There is no seals on the bottom of the doors so easy access for insects, etc. The stairway to top floor is very narrow. There was nothing to hang clothes on or to place luggage we just laid ours on the floor. There was a microwave and refrigerator and hairdryer. The hotel location could demand higher rates but at this time much improvement is required. Mgr advised he has recently acquired the property had plans to make improvements.
Nice, quiet and clean little motel, with generous sized rooms. Easy parking. Roses outside our window. Convenient location, easy to find, and friendly owners.
Price was good 👍 Room was spacious bed was comfortable. It had a microwave and small refrigerator but no coffee maker. Bathroom was clean. Parking was good. Staff were friendly.
It was a very good hotel service wise, but the bed aren’t the best, they are really hard and they don’t provide any shampoo/conditioner also no ice machine or coffee maker. But other than that it was a nice stay.

Overall not a bad room. Did the job. Could use some updating but if you are looking for a decent bed and shower with no frills, this will work.
Bathroom was extremely worn and dirty. Toilet seat was very old and worn. Hair was found all over the sink, bathroom and a few of the towels. Room lacked a table so I had to use the ironing board as a work table. Wifi barely worked most of the time.
I like the parking it was right next to my door. The room was nice and clean towels could be a little bit cleaner, but I took my own then I have no problem with that.
Could be kindly described as a bit grim... Urgently needs refurbishment.

Good quiet room
We had a quick and friendly check in. The room was spacious. Bed was comfortable. The shower was super slippery. I needed somewhere to sleep and it was perfect.

Older property but it was fairly quiet considering we were by 4 way traffic light. Its one of those budget vs luxury decisions.
