The weather stripping was missing on the bottom of my door. There was a large gap between the door and floor allowing the weather to come in. I had to leave a blanket in front of the space while I was in the room.

The overall stay was excellent. The motel was very central to the activities for our group. The room was clean and comfortable. However, the water pressure was iffy. It was great coming out of the spout, but when switched to the shower head the pressure dropped dramatically. Very disappointing. Otherwise, Had a good experience. I would book again and recommend the motel to others.

Don't stay at this place. It's like a little kid's place. And it's not even a nice bed. Nothing places really to be quite honest with you. Worse than a cheap hotel in another country, and I travel all over and the people there.They're just money younger grubbing freaks
