Excellent stay!

We had several special requests and the front desk staff was very helpful and kind. The breakfast was very tasty and hot. We stayed an extra night because we were pleased with everything. The price was very reasonable.

The street noise is unpleasant to say the least. Had to sleep with the air conditioning fan running or the traffic noise was unbearable. The building is very old but the inside has been remodeled and done quite nicely.

The brewery/pub is very nice, staff was friendly and helpful. The motel itself is showing its age, and priced as such. Room was clean and quiet.
