Lori

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The late night checkin was fast and easy and staff was wonderful and very kind. The motel is very basic but a great choice for a quick stay. Beds were comfy and shower was hot with great water pressure. Unfortunately we spotted what appeared to be mouse drippings in the bathroom. I get it, as I live in a wooded area and get mice at times. But I’m terrified of them so it made for a somewhat sleepless night. We found no signs of activity in any part of the main room, and we checked thoroughly!
