This motel is probably the best that we've stayed at and when we visit the area will stay here again. The check in was so much fun; got to meet the dog and cat of the motel. We felt like family.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Everything about this stay was perfect, the staff is nice, the rooms are spotless, you can even get towels to go soak in the hot springs instead of using the nicer ones from the room. I would give them 100 stars if I could.
Park right out in front of your room
Super clean landscaping
Cute modern room
Wonderful space to BBQ

If you are looking for a "home" style hotel, this is it. I will go back, and even though it wasn't a "24 hour" corporate place, it felt like staying at a family or friends place. With all the pluses and minuses. If you want to be pampered,... maybe not, but this is a great place to tay.
