Cleanliness feedback varies: many find rooms very clean, while others report musty odors, very dirty carpets or floors, and occasional pests, plus uneven maintenance such as slow drains or missing shower curtains. Breakfast is simple with limited space but well‑liked coffee. Staff interactions are often warm and helpful, and overall it suits travelers who prioritize convenience over extras.

Facilities
Indoor pool available and appreciated, though a few mention cold water and occasional upkeep lapses (e.g., overflowing trash). Drive-up parking near rooms and on-site laundry add convenience.

A very clean basic motel that suited us perfectly on a last minute holiday weekend. We traveled with our dog and were pleased to find a booking that would allow her at the last minute. A close drive to everything South Haven, and very neat and clean. Check in was easy, and while we didn't make it in for continental breakfast, coffee and other beverages seemed to be available all day in the office. We didn't use the laundry facilities, but appreciated that they were available had we stayed longer. Thank you for a lovely stay.

We needed a place to stay for one night and found this little roadside inn. The price was very reasonable for the general area. The property and our room were perfectly clean. The place is older and it shows but everything worked well and our room had a new vanity and tv. The bed was comfortable. Even though this is right next to the road it was very quiet. Very dog-friendly - plenty of places to walk out pup and the fee of $15 was the most reasonable we’ve ever paid. The staff were friendly and efficient at check-in. It looks like the hotel has some long-term residents but everything was neat and it was very quiet. There is a laundry facility here too - we didn’t go inside. I would stay here again.

The staff is very nice. We left something behind and on their own they knew we would be back a week later and held on to it to return it. We also appreciate that they take pets. We have two labradors and it was just $30 a night extra for the two, not $60. Some places we stay can charge more than half what we pay to stay just for the dogs. And the room is fully carpeted which makes it nice for us too. At the time of our stay they had remodeled the room, sink and toilet. I think the old tub will be next. Another nice thing is you cans back up to your door and it's literally 10 feet to the trunk of your car. Really handy to unload and load up again. We will be back many times.

Good location, quite, comfortable beds was all good. Indoor swimming pool, patio area out back to sit Hotel is older and outdated, small office with limited space and items for breakfast, pool water cold. Carpet was filthy so bad that your feet or socks would be was black. Bathroom floor non carpet area also very dirty, cleaned up and spill but got more from the floor than what I cleaned up. Price could have been cheaper since its a older outdated motel compared to the hotels around running same prices at some locations or giving a dirty floor room,

The property is clean and the staff was friendly but the room smelled musty and mildewed. Less expensive than most properties but I don’t think I would ever stay there again. I do need to say that the coffee they offered for breakfast was fantastic though.

Our experience was very negative. When we arrived later at night, we checked in through a glass window outside. When we got to our room, there were people roaming around by it. Our room smelled musky and was not fully clean. After checking the room, we noticed the windows did not lock, so we did not feel safe. We left the motel that night. When contacting the manager in the morning to cancel the rest of our reservation, he was very rude on the phone. He said there was a policy that he would not cancel weekend dates, but then refused to send the policy through email or tell us where to find the policy. He then said this policy is his own policy and that he tells people on the phone when they book with him. Fortunately, Expedia helped us to get refunded for one of the three nights we paid for.

Check in was easy, and while we didn't make it in for continental breakfast, coffee and other beverages seemed to be available all day in the office.

Indoor swimming pool, patio area out back to sit Hotel is older and outdated, small office with limited space and items for breakfast, pool water cold. Carpet was filthy so bad that your feet or socks would be was black. Bathroom floor non carpet area also very dirty, cleaned up and spill but got more from the floor than what I cleaned up. Price could have been cheaper since its a older outdated motel compared to the hotels around running same prices at some locations or giving a dirty floor room,

We had family camping less than 4 miles away. Loved the convenience and location of the motel. And, the rate was very fair. Having coffee available in the office long after the breakfast times were over was really appreciated.

A very clean basic motel that suited us perfectly on a last minute holiday weekend. We traveled with our dog and were pleased to find a booking that would allow her at the last minute. A close drive to everything South Haven, and very neat and clean. Check in was easy, and while we didn't make it in for continental breakfast, coffee and other beverages seemed to be available all day in the office. We didn't use the laundry facilities, but appreciated that they were available had we stayed longer. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Fast check in, clean room but it smelled a bit of smoke. Sink drained extremely slowly. Garbage can near pool was super overflowing and needed attention. Good value for area.

Low expectations, but it turned out very nice and clean little hotel. They even had some kind of a breakfast bananas, bagels, serial. Other hotels would advertise this as breakfast. This hotel didn't, so it was a nice surprise.

The property is clean and the staff was friendly but the room smelled musty and mildewed. Less expensive than most properties but I don’t think I would ever stay there again. I do need to say that the coffee they offered for breakfast was fantastic though.

Staff was amazing, very respectful to dog owners, pet friendly, exceptional free breakfast. TVs need replacing, very dark screens with no access to setting to increase brightness. Very safe area.

We went for a wedding and didn't want to pay 300.00 per night at the other hotels. This hotel fit our need. It is a 2 star so don't expect 3 when you book this. There is always someone on staff and they're quick to respond to your needs. I was surprised on how good the lobby coffee was. This has easy access to main roads too.
