I've been staying at this motel off and on since 1978. I like the idea that there is no phone, I have my cell phone, the rooms are clean, Sherry is a kind person, known her for many years. I would recommend this motel to everyone.
Took me a minute to get used to the pink walls and out dated TV but overall I was comfortable
Great inexpensive little place! Older, but it makes it kind of cool. The woman who owns/runs it is awesome!
The manager a lovely old woman, nice clean and safe place.
Not a new place obviously, but it's clean! The woman who owns and run the motel is very nice and keeps the motel clean and things working. You really can't beat the price. If you are looking for a clean safe place to crash and don't need a bunch of amenities this is it!!
I was passing through here on business and stayed here for a couple of nights and have to say that I don't know what everyone on the other reviews are talking about. This place isn't the Hyatt but it was a very pleasant stay for me and very reasonable price. For a single was $61 and well worth the price. It was clean with a fridge and microwave and the little old lady that runs the place is one of the most pleasant people that I have encountered in the area. I will definitely be staying here again the next time I pass through.
Small and cozy. Access to multiple points of interest.
The owner is sweet and considerate but stern. Very quiet plave
Ran by a very nice woman who has been there for years and years. Helped my husband out quite a bit while we're were having issues. Rooms are clean but outdated but for the price all is good :)
Very accommodating, helped with a few concerns and took care to follow through. Very friendly
Based on sightseeing, recreation, and getting around
