The gentleman at check in was welcoming, friendly. He put a smile on our face. Banana, apple, and a cookie were nice touch. The room was clean. Nice fluffy towels. The only downside is that the bathroom is tiny and tight. Would however stay here again if we visit the area again.

The Starlight Motel lived up to its excellent ratings. The room was basic, clean and had all the amenities you expect. Microwave, coffee maker, refrigerator. The only thing the Motel does not provide is a complementary breakfast. But that did not deter us from booking. If you're in the area, definitely stay.

Staff was outstanding. Very friendly. Provided welcome basket with fruit and snacks. Made sure we were settled in the room and knew how everything worked. Offered me a free beer to have with my takeout meal on the motel deck. Room was clean and comfortable with extra toiletries if we needed them. Bathroom was cramped and AC was noisy (which he had warned us about at check in) but otherwise the room was very nice for an economy motel.
