This motel is a hidden treasure (so hidden, I almost drove by it! I arrived late at night after a long day of travel. There is no lobby and you get a code to open your small, but renovated and clean, unit. After I left, I realized that I had left an expensive pair of headphones in the room. I texted the ‘innkeeper’ who said they hadn’t found any. A week later he texted me that indeed they had been found (in the office drawer) and they went through the trouble of sending them back to me. They were so nice. I can’t recommend this place enough.

Unique Place

A nice, no-frills place that is reminiscent of the roadside motels of yesteryear. No contact check-in, check-out worked out fine. Nicely groomed area around the motel. Met all of our expectations.

Time Travel

Parking was a bit confusing at first but was actually great. No contact check in was efficient. My room #7 was a "blast from the past" with some plumbing eccentricities. It has been a long time since I had a room with a bar! The shag rug and leather couch was like time travel to my youth. We even had some cowhide influence. I love a place with a 50s motel vibe. Especially when the place is SPOTLESS and has great towels. The TV and Wi-Fi worked great too. I would definitely stay here again.

When I turned the lights out to go to sleep I had bugs crawling on me they were large Beetles that started to crawl up my arms. It was very difficult to sleep after that. It was also very humid in the room.

We were very pleasantly surprised by the size of our room and the cleanliness. The room was quiet and we were sent the room number and door code, so we could straight to the room when we got there. I would definitely stay here again!

I was really hopeful I could find a local place instead of a chain. I was raised in this town and wanted to support the community. I was pleased with the cleanliness of the room. I was taken back when we went to shower and there was not any hot water. Joe was very responsive and told us there was an unusual demand for hot water that morning and to wait 30 minutes. I know the property was not at capacity since we had a room for 4 and only 2 of us (and had not used any water yet). We were set back on our timeframe for our event and found another place to stay the second night. I did not reach out to Joe by 1100 (the check out time) because we were at our event, and because of the time (I contacted him at 1:45pm), he would not refund the second night. My opinion is that I should have at least been given a late check out refund. My request was a full refund as we could not shower and get ready on time and that was denied. The lack of water was my only complaint, but if I cannot get ready and make it to my destination on time, that is a fault of the property when the basic need was hot water.
