The hotel is quaint, loved the 80's music playing in the bar. The bed was extra firm which is not my favorite, but the room was clean and had decent amenities. Would definitely stay there again anytime.

This is an older motel, without a breakfast option. But, that being said, the prices were very reasonable and the service was great. The beds were comfortable and the rooms were extremely spacious. This would be a great place for a family with a lot of "stuff" to stay.

Friendly service by the owner. The place is very classic and vintage style but very clean and no evidence of bugs. The bed was very comfortable and the owner was very accommodating at the bar, which was a great place to hang out after a long trip. Recommended!
