Enjoyable stay

When we stayed it was quiet with few guests. The weather was terrible and no local happenings. We were welcomed and had a quiet room with comfortable beds and a nice continental breakfast. It is an older motel but was clean and comfortable

A bare bones motel, but very clean. Heat was either on, hotter and hotter, or off, colder and colder. That was a problem.

Not worth almost $300

Super basic room. Two queen beds, full size shower. Bathroom counter had a TON of chips in it, yellow staining around the sink drain. All of the towels had holes in them. There were only two outlets in the entire room, one in the bathroom and one behind the microwave. We were looking forward to using the pool but it was closed the entire stay without warning. Front desk receptionist was friendly.
