6/10 Good

Easy check in, but property is run down. Door chipped and beaten up, bathroom window partially shattered, bedding felt dirty. The entire place needs some serious refurbishing. I only stayed for one night because the price was good and it has a cool retro look from the road. But sadly that’s where it ends.

Chauncey, 6-night trip

8/10 Very good

It was cheap, but it was just enough as far as a place to sleep. Staying there during an arctic front. They need better insulation on the base of the front doors to keep the outside chill from coming in. Heat, tv, fridge, and microwave all worked.Sheets are very thin, so either keep the heat up or bring extra pj’s.

6/10 Good

It’s an average stop in a great town. Better options abound for overall quality, I usually stay here because the rooms are generally cheaper.

Really charming motel, manager was very nice with cute puppy.
Erin, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

I’ve stayed here about five times over the years, and overall it’s a decent place to stay. It’s very affordable and the rooms are cute, though they can vary quite a bit. In my experience the rooms are usually clean, but the bathrooms and laundry could use more attention. That said, the staff are friendly, and it’s one of the cheapest places you can stay, especially with a hot tub included. If you’re okay with some wear and tear, it’s a good value for the price.
