The owners were lovely but the walls are paper thin n the bed rock hatd
The owner was so friendly and has the desire to make your stay great! He truly cares about his place! He is making upgrades and repairs as he can ands I feel he is doing a great job!!
Clean place to crash for a couple of nights! The fridge and microwave were nice additions. Shower and heat were both nice and hot. Good deal!

The motel was clean and comfortable and after 10pm was quiet. We had coffee, tea, orange juice, cereal, hardboiled eggs, toast and more for breakfast. There was a wet area near the refrigerator though. Check in and check out were fast and straightforward.
Wow, nice old history type rooms, really neat. Comfy & good supplies. Basic continental breakfast, but had French toast too. Was super clean. Note front desk has limited hours.

Our room was clean and our check in person was very nice and helpful. The bed was comfortable and the motel was quiet. Some furnishings were a bit shabby and the bathroom sink drain had no plug - don’t drop your toothbrush or an earring.

A great value.
I enjoyed my stay at this nice family owned hotel, very spacious room with parking right outside my door, and quiet surroundings.
Only wished the ice machine was working when I was there.
