I liked the cleanliness of the town. Gas was high. The motel is in a good location. Unfortunately the hot tub was out of commission. Swim pool was nice but a bit cool. The room needed a place to hang towels after a shower. I do not like the low toilets. Room was clean and comfortable.

This is a fine value motel, but it shows it's age, and they could really upgrade to two ply tissue and toilet paper. Honestly how much more could that possible cost. It was available and served our overnight need fine.

Didn't stay there.

I rented this hotel room for a lady who I picked as a hitchhiker. She had no money and I didn't want have her stay in my RV so I really can't say much about the room. It's an older hotel so clean but dated. The guy at the desk was a stand up guy and went above and beyond to help her.
