Everything was good. Clean and comfortable. Nice and friendly staff. Liked that you couldn’t hear outside noise. Bathroom could use some upgrades on the extras like the toilet paper holder. But overall was worth it. This is our second time staying here.

Pleasant Stay

Pleasant stay overall. Front desk staff at check-in was super engaging, friendly, and accommodating. Room was adequate, bed being especially comfortable. Amenities included a microwave and mini refrigerator. Plenty of free parking. Stayed on a Friday night and property was quiet. Would stay again.
Michael, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Value

The motel has an older vibe, with smaller rooms and a compact layout. We spent most of our time out and about and only needed the room for sleeping, showering, and getting ready. If we had needed to spend more time in the room, it would have felt too cramped for us. On the plus side, the room included a refrigerator and microwave, and they offered a continental breakfast.gerator and microwave, and they offered a continental breakfast.
