It was a great little place to have one to two nights at a clean, quant, comfortable vacation :) my boyfriend and I stayed there for one night and it was perfect! It’s single level, so on one above us, which was very nice! Staff was very nice and helpful. Would definitely stay here again!!

Quaint no-frills motel- owned by the same kind family for 42 years. It’s obvious that they take meticulous care of this place- and so very nice! Great location walking distance to everything - Scout coffee a 4 minute walk, which is awesome. Our room still has the “magic fingers” bed massage for a quarter- a fun throwback, and a for-show only push button phone- but a nice tv that can connect to your favorite streaming service. Ice cold air and a heater that we didn’t need to use. My only suggestion, bring your own soap and shampoo. If you need a nice little motel within easy walking distance to the bayfront as well S local shops- give this place a look!

The clean, charming property and friendly staff were excellent, which made our stay well worth the cost. Our room was very clean and beautifully decorated which greatly added to the charm. This motel is a nice short walk from the darling down town area.

Excellent location! Walkable to everything! Ann couldn’t have been nicer! As others have said, furnishings are dated, but overall still a good value. The heating and cooling system and shower were nicely updated. I suggest the carpet be updated next or changed to vinyl flooring perhaps? Would stay again.
