We'll be back!
Nice, comfy old-school motel. Super clean, very comfortable beds with crisp sheets. Awesome pillows. It's clear that the owners are continuing to make upgrades here and there. The only thing that did not go well was my inability to get some computer work done, as the Wi-Fi would not stay connected. I don't know if it had anything to do with the fact that we were in one of the rooms toward the rear of the property (Room 23). Other than that, we were very pleased with out stay, and we look forward to staying here again.

As others have said, very clean simple accommodations. Dated but that’s not a concern as the bed was comfortable and shower hot. Would stay again, budget friendly and good service!
