Unique "touchless" checkin. Dated room, but clean and quiet. Everything worked, including coffee machine.

It was an inexpensive room so expectations weren’t unreasonably high but the bathroom drains were so slow that you couldn’t shower, and carpet was soaked next to the AC unit. Area was nice and walkable.

Reasonably priced and even though they’re offsite, the staff was very responsive. The room was nice and the bed was quite comfortable. Could have used a vacuuming but overall it was a pleasant stay.

All right, unfortunately it’s in a excellent area, but I feel almost bad saying anything negative because I was trying to support small business, but it needs to be cleaned. Updated for sure.

Okay so we do a lot of traveling and I like to use the small mom and pop places to help them survive a little easier. The only thing I can say about this place is even though it was about 70 dollars a night it was still too much. We had a late check in due to early morning work and travel afterwards. I called earlier to get a room number and code so I didn’t have to do it later since there was nobody at the desk ever. Contactless check in is not working as far as I can tell. So we get there after a long day of work and travel and as all we want to do is rest and the room is filthy. Apparently they don’t check the rooms to see if they are clean. I was in the room for about 20 minutes and my allergies wouldn’t let me get comfortable. We called the office and they switched us to a too another room which was almost as dirty, it did smell like a urinal cake but not mold so we stayed for 2of the three nights. Moral of the story is you should NOT stay here if you have any standards at all. Totally outdated, unclean and disgusting. If it wasn’t the 4th of July we would have moved to a different motel it was that bad.

The room was spotless and comfortable. It’s an old motel, but you can see the owners are putting their best foot forward to improve it. Great spot for the price

Check in was a breeze once I figured out to just call to get my room # and code for the door as there is no front desk. Room was a little dated, but super clean. It was a great budget friendly option as we were just passing through. There was also a really nice diner within walking distance called Dewdrop. It had a great breakfast. Nice and clean too.

It's a older motel but clean and quiet. Check in by phone for code and room number as no staff on site. It's a short walk from downtown. Very clean
