We enjoyed our stay and the place was clean. I liked the fact that there was a microwave and a fridge as well as a Keurig in the room and a bottle filler right outside. Check in was easy and the place was very nice overall. There are a couple of things to note for future travelers. 1. Our room was very small. With 2 queen beds and a room under 200sf, it is not ideal for 4 people. It was my fault for not looking at that detail. But definitely check the room SF to make sure it works for your party size. If there were only 2 of us, it would've been just fine! 2. There are lights right outside every window and there are no curtains, just shutters. That meant at 4am, it looked like it was 7am outside. If you like it dark when you sleep, you'd better bring window coverings because lots of light comes in! I would stay there again in a larger room, with some sleep masks for the family!

It is posted in multiple places that quiet time is from 9:00pm to 9:00am. At 6:45am someone had a leaf blower going! It only occurred one morning. Otherwise, awesome stay.

Clean and Small Motel, 10 Rooms

Price and cleanliness excellent; no human service but very efficient check in, if you had directions and explanations on i phone or text. Code to open lobby door, and key very visable, so easy to locate room, as only 10. Charming motel with outside seating but no amenities inside. Check out easy, but again, no human contact. One overnight was adequate for convenience and price.

It was lovely. It would have been more helpful to have information about the logistics of the property, i.e. on staff on site etc. however, it did not overly impact our stay in any way. We would certainly stay again. Rooms are small, best for 1-2 people.
