This is an older motel in an excellent location. The owner hired three great, friendly gals to check you in. Room was small, but clean and fine. I would return.

An older property but has been updated. Nothing fancy, but convenient to things to do. Our room was close to the front which makes view nice, but then street noises were annoying.

Liked: Cleanliness
The property was in a great location. The owners are in a state of upgrades to the rooms...while on a budget. They are doing well with this. Our room was clean and as described. My only complaint was their pillow situation. We had a king bed with three very tiny pillows...I suggest you make an investment in good comfortable pillows - they aren't too expensive and make a big difference in sleep quality.

Disliked: Amenities
This property is a basic, yet clean motel, that provides all of the functions one would expect from a less-expensive motel. I have stayed here many times over the last few months, and find it to be quite acceptable. Highly recommend as decent lodging, if all you need is the basics.

Worth the reasonable cost
Great customer service. Stayed off season for low cost so staying overnight was worth the inexpensive cost. Room was clean, small and in need of minor repairs.
