I am very impressed with this motel. The cost was low for how nice it was. It is basic, but super clean, quiet, and a nice breakfast.

Mary was wonderful at check in and check out! The barista made wonderful craft drinks but wasn’t happy about being the only bar tender for the night. The chips in our room were expired. Breakfast had lots of options except no coffee :( Will for sure give it another go!
