The wife and I stayed quite comfortably at this older motel. The service was basic, but friendly and the room was clean and smelled clean. It was obviously well kept. Some issues but most can be accounted for in that the place is simply older. We had no real troubles, and the proximity to places we wanted to go was superb. An inexpensive clean place if you can forgive age and simpler motel needs.
Jun 13, 2026 ยท Google ReviewIn a world where things to be bought under $100 is constantly shrinking, this place is a burning beacon of good deals. Itโs an older hotel, so itโs nothing fancy but it is well kept and very clean and staffed with friendly individuals. Iโd been on a solo motorcycle camping trip and got caught out riding in the cold and unforgiving rain for 5 hours and wasnโt feeling up to another night in the camp. Iโm a spendthrift and so I sought out a deal on the interwebs and I landed here and I couldnโt be happier. Fortuna had smiled upon me. Plus, itโs privately owned so Iโm supporting a small local business. I would recommend this place to anyone looking to pinch a penny without having to suffer any custodial shortfalls. The room has a comfortable bed, mini fridge, nuke box, and television, as well as cold a/c.

Jul 6, 2026 ยท Google ReviewThis is a nice motel. The room I was in was clean. They only issue I have with this place is that it doesn't rent to locals,homeless. Which is stupid as all. They being ignorant and prejudice. I understand they had some who trashed the rooms or what not but not all are bad. They need to change there policy. Then maybe they would get more business
