The staff and service was excellent. The room had a great bed and was a nice set up for a more affordable motel option. It wasn't the most luxurious place, but I think for the price, this is a great option. The rooms are nice and more spacious than I was expecting. There was plenty of parking as well.

Crappy breakfast

Just a night stay while out of town and then back on the road. Room was nice and clean and was able to Check-in at noon without a fee.. they also had a nice flower garden for a courtyard. Only real complaint would have been their breakfast.No good really wasn't one, and if you smoke, then you have to go literally, like off property to a designated smoking area.You couldn't just smoke outside your room. And they require a two hundred and fifty dollar deposit down on the room which I thought was a bit high.

MOLD!!

We stayed in room 39. We couldn’t figure out the smell it had. Got to looking & the room had tons of mold in it. They moved our room. The grounds are poorly cared for as well. The rooms were not very clean. I don’t understand how housekeeping never found the mold before us. You could smell it. The entire room was very damp. Horrible experience. We will never stay there again.

Very cute little hotel! Stayed here randomly and was pleasantly surprised. A cute little bar is attached too. The patio/garden area is nice. If I would have had more time I would have enjoyed coffee and read my book out there. Only negatives was the room smelling musty and there was water on the bathroom floor.

Clean and relatively quiet place. It’s convenient to get to popular places, and just far enough off the main road so it’s quiet. They have live music on the weekend, which is cool!
