Fun

A fun place to stay. Right on the main road so easy walk to a few businesses. Newly renovated with fun themes. Clean. Comfortable.
TRACI, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Motel is super cute and our room was the perfect size for two of us for one night on our road trip. Only a couple things would have made it better. The window really needs to have curtains that block out the sun. When you’re on vacation and drove for a long time, the last thing you want is to wake when the sun comes up. The room brightens up too much in the am. Would have been nice to have black out curtains to not be awaken at 0600. Also, the mattress is a bit too firm.

Hubby and I just stayed for a second time. It’s simple and clean and staff are friendly. Definitely close to traffic, but that didn’t bother us.

good enough. crappy wifi

staff is friendly enough. lousy wifi. wifi didn't work. it wouldn't seem difficult to provide decent wifi service.

This sink would not drain, the guy who checked me in came right over and had it fixed in no time, I appreciate that. I booked months in advance, it would have been better to have a room that wasn't the closet one to the main road. I will always stay here.

I was a bit disappointed in the place after having read the positive reviews. I was especially disappointed that my room did not have a coffee maker. The decor is quaint, but the room was a bit difficult to heat. Overall it was a decent place to stay for a couple of nights.
