The motel was very clean, updated and comfortable and we loved the hot tub. Only downside was the breakfast could be improved and the road noise was significant, but we were only three doors from the road. Ask for a room away from the road closer to the office and I’m sure your experience will be exceptional!

Excellent stay. The only critique was that there was no parking in the lot, since a number of guests had cars that were occupying two spaces.
