2/10 Poor

SKIP FOR SURE. NOT WORTH THE MONEY

Dirty. Found old food on the floor next to the table. We also found cockroaches. We were too tired to ask for another room. The room had an OVERWHELMING smell of freshner. This motel is soooooo NOT worth the money.

Exactly what it looks like

‘Vintage’ without trying too hard. No frills. Simple sleep and lodging. Loved the eclectic room furnishings and decor. This place is exactly what it looks like from the outside. A portal back to simpler times. Enjoy your stay.

10/10 Exceptional

It looks a little rough on the outside, but the room is really comfortable. The bed is awesome, much better than you expect from a motel. Wifi works great. And the couple who run it are very sweet.

I was very satisfied with stay. The room & especially the bathroom were upgraded and very nice. Owner very friendly and helpful. Close to historic area of town.

8/10 Very good

Friendly staff, felt welcomed on checkin. Room was dominated by a king sized bed which, while comfortable with new, clean bedding, left very little space to move around let alone do yoga. New tiles in bathroom but the floor and lower walls throughout were horribly dirty. Door had a broken security lock. Other hotel guests/residents were noisy. There was a lot of coming and going in the night as well as highway noise and sirens. Property has rather unkempt exterior surroundings and though the sign loudly proclaims Restaurant it is disappointingly closed. Bananas and water were available in the office at checkin to off set this.

Decent budget Motel

The room was small, but very clean. The outside property is a little run down with weeds and not well kept up. We had a dog and had to go behind the motel to find an area for our dog to relieve himself. Also the pictures that our shown our old and need to be updated.

Cleanliness was good, but the toilet was not anchored to the floor very well, water pressure was poor in the shower and hot water was almost non existent.

Our stay here was average. The room shown on the web is nothing like the room we stayed in. The walls could use a coat of paint. Thinks where pretty run down.
