Great Room Great Value
Very clean but very basic room - but that's not a complaint, it was very pleasant. Extremely friendly staff. One of the most significant details is that my room was SILENT - couldn't hear anyone next door, couldn't hear traffic outside etc - It was very relaxing.

Perfect Stay
This was a cute locally owned motel which reminded us of ones we stayed in long ago. The grounds were so well kept up and the room, although small, was nicely updated. Clean, comfortable, quiet and safe are things we look for and this fit the bill. Also the price was right. The owner was very friendly and accommodating. We would certainly stay here again.
