Love this property, glad to see the old school motels being renovated and still being used. I drive semi and I stay on my hometime just to get away from driving. One thing that does need improvement is the smell of must in the lobby and rooms! Last room I was in 114 the bathroom fan is very loud and vibrating. Beds and entertainment is all excellent. Refrigerator is good! Ice machine needs some improvement in the lobby it puts out slushy ice not cubes. I would probably be back in July for an overnight stay.

Stayed here after a local wedding and didn't want to drive to the bigger cities, it was more convenient to stay here. We were very surprised by how nice the lobby was, how quiet it was, spacious rooms and clean. Probably won't be in this area to stay again but would for sure recommend it!!

An old motel that is revamped. The new carpet was nice. New TV. The bed was comfortable. We had a quiet and restful 2 night stay. The price was reasonable considering the condition. A flimsy lock on the door, older drapes that wouldn't close, rust stains on the fixtures. That said, we will stay there again. Staff super friendly.

The room was clean and comfortable. The housecleaner did not come after my first night. However, all I really needed was to have the trash emptied and the coffee creamers restocked. I would recommend thisA A motel and would stay there again myself.

I booked 4 rooms for my staff that were doing a project in the area and they have all raved about how nice the property was. In small towns, we don't always have access to the best accommodations, so they were nervous going into this project about what to expect from this property but all four of them loved it. We ended up needing to call the staff at one point due to two of my staff members forgetting something in the rooms and they were extremely kind and accommodating. Would highly recommend staying here if you are ever in need of a place to stay in the area. Big props to the owners and staff of this location.
