The people who run this motel are really great and provide excellent service. The on site breakfast was great, considering that this is a small, family run place. There is a nice little area outside to relax in. It’s a basic motel, nothing fancy, but very pleasant and friendly.

With a little TLC cleanup outside, and a few updates in room (ie, rattling A/C, carpet) this could be restored to a nice property.

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.
