This place was disgusting. The poor receptionist showed us multiple rooms- each was just gross. Every room had a dirty carpet. Some smelled of weed and/or cigarette smoke, one had a dirty bathroom. Another smelled so heavily of mildew and mold. We ended up leaving and paying for a room at the Comfort Inn. I will never recommend Viking Arms Inn to anyone, and am frankly shocked that Expedia allows this place to advertise through them.

Shower is tiny! Water pressure is great but for a large bathroom space i dont know why the shower is so small. Nice, clean, quiet place thats great for an overnight or weekend. Not modern but not rundown, just nice mid priced stay.

We really liked this motel. The owners were a kind family who allowed us to use their personal water hose to rinse off our kayak. These owners have really made a nice motel business here.
