The man at the front desk was very nice and efficient. I love that they give you a key and not plastic. I love this motel! As a single female traveller I felt safe. The room was spacious and would have been great for having guests over. Everything was clean and the price was the best. The trees and grass make it feel like you are staying in a garden which has a nice calming peaceful effect. Ya I n...

Room was very clean and ha amenities. The only problem was the bathroom. The toilet didn't seem affixed to the floor and it was very small. My 6 ft husband had his knees in his face. It was also difficult for me to get off of because of height and stability. They need to switch that out for something taller.

Pretty good place overall. It has that old motel charm about it — door opens onto the parking lot. Very quiet hotel. Heard no noise from the road. Very clean and great service from the front desk at checkin and checkout. Ground staff were friendly and so were the cleaning ladies. Breakfast is on the lighter side, but hey it’s included. Can’t complain.
