This place is older, but was nice and clean it's not fancy, but if you need a nice clean place to spend the night I would recommend it, and they have a gas station a block away and a Dollar general a block away Plus plenty of restaurants choose from at the exit

We experienced a fine manager. Very friendly and helpful. However, the motel is like I stayed in as a child in the 1950s. It was clean and served our purpose at a very low price.

The motel is a time capsule from the 1950's and is a fun place to stay. many of the other guests who gathered outside their rooms and talked until after 4:00 A.M. and therefore made it difficult to sleep.

Very comfy

This hotel shocked me. It is family-owned and located in a very safe, quaint town. The desk clerk was friendly and the room was unbelievably clean. Bed was also comfy. Despite it being 2 degrees outside, the room itself stayed warm and the water was hot for showering. Definitely worth the price. I'd stay here again.
