This is a very basic motel, but the room and bath were clean and the bed was comfortable. I thought we got good value for the money. We were traveling with our EV and it was super convenient to be able to charge overnight, but I have to say the price was the highest I’ve ever paid for a slow charge and we didn’t even need a full charge-up.

The air conditioning (heat mode) worked OK, but the drapes obstructed the air flow, so we left them open all night so the warm air could circulated properly.

We weren't able to stay the night; due to a family emergency we had to check out about 9:30 PM. The room was obviously old, but clean and well furnished. The owner/manager was attentive, and I was impressed by their huge solar arrays!

This property is a little run down and dated. It is fine if you just want a place to crash for the night, but not ideal for a family vacation.
