I’ve never been so impressed by a “motel” as I was with The Honey Bee Motel. I wish other places could see the little touches as well as the big efforts they do and did to make the stay at this place so enjoyable. Thanks!

Frustrated

Didn't get to stay!!! The office closed at 600 PM, no one answered our calls. We were late getting in and were forced to stay at another hotel which paying for stays at two motels for one night cost us over $200.00. Very unpleasant experience

Comfortable but noisy

I had a comfortable stay. The room was next to the lobby and it was very noisy. The walls seemed paper thin. The bar attached has an awesome burger!
