I was not able to stay at this Motel as the city had closed off their parking lot. The Manager arranged for me to stay in The Modern Motel just down the street.

Friendly Staff, Questionable Location

I booked online but a storm that took down internet prevented the hotel staff from seeing my booking in a timely fashion. As a result, they were booked and placed me in another hotel a couple blocks away/same owner, the Modern Motel. Angie and her husband were great about making this change, give me directions, and allow me to come back to the original hotel the next morning to do laundry. Thank you so much!! Both hotels were on a busy highway with lots of noise, and a fair number of pedestrians for the time of evening. Arriving after dark and seeing the condition of the area, I was concerned for my safety. The room was clean and comfortable with good amenities. However, the exterior lighting and door/window security were lacking at the hotel, again leading to safely concerns. I would recommend some upgrades to those areas, as well as well-lit signs to make it easier to locate the hotels.

Great value. Friendly owners.

The owners were friendly and made me feel welcomed. Very down to earth couple. The accommodations were good - comfy bed, had the suite with mini kitchen and it was Perfect! All the basics were met and Wifi provided to boot. Value packed for the price. Location is a little off the beaten path, if sticking to highway travel, but worth the detour.

Very nice staff. Old country motel was full so they sent me down the road to the ironically named modern motel. Bed was very comfortable and price was right, but very old and run down exterior. Next door to a DQ which hit the spot.

It was so clean and smelled fresh!! The managers were amazing too. Super helpful and ensured that I was comfortable. The shower was pretty new and I loved that. It was a really great stay, and I’d definitely stay here again. It looks like older motel from outside but it’s very comfortable and your whole perspective changes after talking to the managers and entering your room.
