This is a small little motel that has been redone inside and it is super cute with very nice beds. You can tell it is older but they do a great job with it and the couple who runs it are so nice! We had a great stay. We have been twice now. Plus it’s walking distance to most anything in the town.

This is a small and older motel. How ever I would definitely stay again. The rooms were very clean and fresh. The owners were very nice and accommodating. It is within walking distant to The Polar Express Train and restaurants. Very happy with our stay.

Stay at Relax Inn

It's a basic room, but that's all I wanted before spending the next few days hiking. The shower was nice, the water hot, the bed was comfortable, and the room was clean. Plus a refridgerator, microwave and coffee. I also feel like my money was staying local instead of a hotel chain. I like that. I'll stay here again
