Motel is old but well maintained. It’s a good location. For what we paid it was not a good value. We had the kitchenette. The futon on whatever you call it was absolutely useless and could not sit on it. There was no where to sit to watch tv short of bringing a kitchen chair out. Coffee machine didn’t work.
