This is a beautiful, quiet motel that is only a short distance away from the always-busy town of Eprhaim during the summer season. We loved the flowers, nice hotel staff (Sarah in particular) and the pleasant hotel guests. This was our second stay and we'd like to come back.

We stayed here over the 4th of July holiday and everything was great. The entire property was very clean including our room. We could tell that they really cared about taking care of things and saw employees out everyday cleaning and tidying things up. We stayed with our two year old so the playground and heated pool were a definite plus. We would stay here again and recommend it to anyone staying in the area.

Rooms were on the smaller size but met our needs for two nights. We were very impressed with how clean the rooms were. Counter area on vanity was limited. No ADA bars in bathtub. Connectivity on night stands would have been nice so we didn't have to search for the outlets. Overall a good experience.

I liked the grounds with the flowers however wasn’t happy with the fact that I booked the room in advance and ended up getting a room under the stairs. With a garbage can view disappointed also trying to drive in the back was hard with no mirrors to see if there’s an oncoming car coming towards you.
