The owners/staff(?) have worked hard keep the property clean and updated. The building itself is older Motel style and efficient. There is fragrance in their cleaning products, which I notice in many hotels and motels and it wasn't as strong as I have experienced at others. The Breakfast buffet was not in use due to covid restrictions. The television remote needed new batteries but we didn't need TV during the stay and left a note to such when we left.

Clean, comfortable and conveniently located. Given that breakfast isn’t being served, it would have been nice to have more coffee in the room.. perhaps a pre-order of some parties and fruit in the room

I heartily apologize for the inconvenience caused to you, I called restaurant guy and asked to stop the music but he didn't. I tried best to convince him to at least lower the music but I failed. I had a talk with restaurant owner.

We went at the height of the fall season over 10/12-13. We were lucky to reserve this room the same day and it was fine for a base for doing hikes. That said for a total of $195, its an old motel and one could get a lot more in terms of amenities and charm with some advance planning. Breakfast was terrible.

"The Bates Motel." The first room smelled stale and had an odd arrangement of furniture. The television was on stand that was so low to the floor that you had to sit up in the bed or the two overstuffed dingy chairs and look down towards the floor. The toilet didn't flush. Requested room change and it too was stale and had a huge spider in the bathroom. The attendant said that the toilet in the first room did work. All We had to do was push the rubber down inside the tank! Disgusting and overpriced!!!!!!!!!!

This Inn is a nice place to stay at a reasonable cost. Their complementary breakfast is basic and I wish they would have plain yogurt and not the flavored ones available. The bagels are tiny in size and once again it would be preferable to have regular size bagels. These are minor details. Overall it’s a decent place to stay for the price.

All in All
The room was exceptionally clean, the location great. My only complaint was that the air conditioner was a little loud - but it worked great. I cannot comment on the breakfast- we went somewhere else for something more substantial than what they offered.

I really loved our room. It was very comfortable and good sized. The bed and pillows were very nice !! The chairs in front of the TV were super comfortable. We loved being able to keep our classic snazzy collectible car right in front where we could keep an eye on her !! The only thing that was sort of lame was the "breakfast." We had to go somewhere else for breakfast both mornings. The coffee was good but the rest was nothing special - at all.

A clean, classic motel
The Inn at Iron Masters is a classic, older motel. It's dated compared to a more modern facility, and less quaint than something "intentionally" retro, but is in exceptionally well kept, clean and pleasant. It's clear that the housekeeping staff and owners take pride in the condition of the rooms, and I would definitely stay there again. Beds were comfy too.

Dreary. Needs a facelift. Was consigned to back rooms where there was no light at night, quite spooky. Also, coffee not available until 0700, much to late for business activities. Air conditioner was noisy. BUT, room and bathroom were very clean.
