Very nice rooms and spacious. Good water pressure. 3 minutes from Creston
Would have given 5 stars but the room smelled like dog and i am allergic. Didnt complain. Had a eonderful sleep. Beds are comfortable. Staff was great!
Overall a good stay. Slept really well.
Rooms were clean and mostly updated. This trip we got a one queen bed room. This one didnt have the bed topper so was not as comfortable as the last room we stayed in. Over all still great.

Pleasant host, and staff. Very accommodating. Despite it being an older motel, the room was comfortable, up dated, and well laid out. Extra little touches make it cozy. A/C, parking out front.
Very good for the price. Roomy 2 bedrooms. Small kitchen and living area. Was perfect for our stay. Was clean and had everything we needed. Air conditioner was not good. Would not want to stay here on a hot day.

It’s an older place but kept clean, comfortable and friendly staff. Conveniently located. Separate bedroom is great!
