Decent place to stay. Not the most luxurious but bed was ok, room and bathroom were clean. That’s all I was hoping for. Didn’t get a chance to try the breakfast as me and the wife slept. Too tired. I’d stay again.

We stayed one night while passing through town. Basic motel, reasonably clean, very nice person checked us in. Basics for breakfast…fruit, cereal, packaged pastries. Also warm biscuits and gravy. Probably the best choice to stay in a struggling ghost of a town - few options for dinner, all of which seemed to close early 7 or 8.
