It’s your basic hotel room. It was clean. There was an issue with the hot water in the shower. I had to let the water run for about 10 mins plus run the sink and then the hot water kicked in. Other than that, the location was back off in the cut so it was very private and quiet.

Great quiet place . Could use more workers but not bad being that the place is still going through construction.

Clean and comfortable rooms with comfortable beds. The lady at the front desk at night is the sweetest, kindest most helpful and most accommodating person in a hotel I have ever met. She will help you with anything possible and will make sure that you are 100% comfortable with everything in your room. Much appreciated especially when you're traveling with a toddler.

I went for 1 night to attend an event. The manager was away so the staff had to jump the counter to check me. I appreciated the ingenuity. She checked the room and said it was deep cleaned.
The sheets on one of the beds looked to have blood stains. There was no soap in the room. The extra security mechanism on the door was broke. There were stains on the bathroom towels. I usually bring some...glad I did.

When we arrived and checked out, there was nobody at the front desk. We had to ring a bell and wait for assistance. The entire building smelled like cigarette smoke and there were bags of garbage in the hallways. When we looked out the window, we could see garbage laying around in the back of the building. Breakfast was advertised as being included but, there was nothing available. Would not stay here again.

This property is extremely hard to find as you have to pull off the main street and drive through another motel parking lot to get there.
It would be helpful if when a motel says they are pet friendly, they also mention that there is a non refundable fee and what that might be b4 the room is reserved!

Lovely staff. Clean room. Such a shame about the area. The motel infront of the hotel had a rather unsettling vibe. But it was a good nights sleep and clean.

No breakfast limited tv channels not a smart tv so I couldn’t log into my Netflix account like I do everywhere else. Limited towels and the towels were rough. No locks or knob on the door in the back so I didn’t feel secure and safe anyone could’ve just walked in the building without a key and the staff were hardly never around also the staff could’ve been more professional and friendlier

The room smelled horribly on top the towels being filthy . The blankets were thin and poorly made. I do not recommend this hotel by any means this place is absolutely unacceptable.
