The staff at the hotel were very helpful. We got in late in the evening and they helped us park our truck and trailer. The room was the cleanest room we’d ever seen. And it was so comfortable. And it was so quiet. We highly recommend.

The room was fine. We only dealt with the desk clerk and he was pleasant. The ac/heat worked well, just noisy at times.....sometimes a rattle, some time an alarm clock sound, sometimes a hissing.

Drive to the door Carthage motel

The room was clean and comfortable, and not too far from Carthage center. It was a drive to the door motel on one level which is very handy. There was a lovely family restaurant within a 10 minute walk from the motel, and a mexican just over the road.

Overall good value for the price.

The the room was pretty basic but it was clean and had been recently renovated. The bed was comfortably firm and even had lace edged sheets. Like every old motel you could pick up a hint of old smoke smell even though the room is now non-smoking. The lady at the front desk was polite and spoke English well enough.

The owner was at the front desk. He was super nice and very friendly. I was on a motorcycle, he allowed me to park it in a covered area and places me in a room that was very close to that area. Rooms were clean and the bed was great. In the morning he made sure to tell me that coffee was ready and offered to let me fill a travel mug if i wanted. Would highly recommend
