This was the nicest motel I’ve ever stayed at. It was an unplanned stay - needed something last minute and hopped online to look. Arrived late, didn’t feel like sketchy people around. Check in guy was nice and let me get ice after hours. It’s a small place, with small but adequate parking right in front. Outside in good condition with welcoming sunshine yellow doors on rooms. Inside of room was clean and decor was delightful - a colorful mural taking up most of wall that you see upon entering, and a sky scene with birds on the ceiling. Pretty white wooden shutters on windows, nice headboards, good bedding, and comfortable bed. Bathroom was long and spacious for a motel, with a high window letting in natural light. Cute mini-fridge. And no carpet. Very nice all the way around. Didn’t see if there was breakfast option. Is in town, so some street noise in the morning - but nothing that woke me up. If I was going to make a suggestion, it would be to add one of those door locks that allow you to crack door open, while still being latched - a 2nd lock like that gives an added feeling of security. Thanks so much for a great stay!

Large room with two queen beds. Bathroom was separate from the bedroom. The paintings on the walls and ceiling were a good surprise. Apparently all the rooms are painted differently.

Delightful gem

The motel was lovely. The room was clean, smelled wonderful and the pillows were amazing. The ceiling of the room had the night sky painted on it and there was a switch on the wall that allowed you to see it by turning on a black light discreetly tucked behind the tv. The ONLY drawback was not the fault of the motel - the area has a high transient population and they were aggressive when not given cigarettes they requested. City police need to do a better job of moving them along.

Horrid bed but clean and spacious

This is a roadside motel. Whole clean and spacious, it was the single worst bed I’ve ever (not) slept on, bumpy and with springs in my back. There is nowhere to put any clothes but if that’s not a concern then you should be fine.
