Great location for us and very nice people running the Motel. Very helpful. Hotel room door is old and does not seal around the bottom so critters, noise and weather can get in. Also the pool area needs upkeep. But it was good price and conveniently located.

The room was clean enough. I was disappointed in the pool area. It was not particularly inviting to go in for a swim but not a big deal. It’s a plain and simple motel if you need somewhere to stay for the night. You’re not getting Big 4 or Discovery quality but it was clean.

Fully equiped and convenient. Queen bed was possibly just a double only. Seemed smaller than my queen size bed at home.

Communication should be improved. The receptionist on the desk was excellent, room was good but ideally the room was better for a family and not four adults. There was a problem with the booking and communication would have avoided this.
