Very good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Second time staying. Off season. It is a non-smoking property. It is not posted very well. So heads up.
They do not take AAA or AARP. Rate was very reasonable.
Definitely would stay again.
Very cute motel. You can tell its been recently remodeled and was done really nicely. Even though it was the off season so they didnt have anyone at the front office, the staff we did encounter was extremely nice and seemed very proud of their work in remodelng (as they should be). I was nervous about there not being an office person for clock in and out but it was seamless and easy through their text system.
