Beware.

The staff or owners were very friendly. However, the bed was partially unmade, and the place is currently under construction. I can see that they are trying very hard to make it a nice place for lodging however, it is still in the very early stages.

When we arrived the area around the motel has junk lawnmowers and other trash our door would close but the crack in between u could see in and out,the lamp and ac was connected together so when u are done u have to unplug the lamp from the wall, the bed was homemade bed and the mountain view they portray as beautiful but u can only see through a small area and last but not least the chair on the porch was a legit shower chair!!! Oh and out of all the people living there no1 but one lady spoke english and it wasnt that good. I would absolutely stay away from this motel

The Lemon Inn announces itself before you ever reach the room. Perched on a slope with visible determination, the exterior corridors provide fresh mountain air and the subtle thrill of questioning whether the railings are decorative, structural, or purely aspirational. Inside, the décor commits fully to garage-sale chic. The drapes—clearly from different eras—were pulled together and secured with a safety pin, a bold statement that function will always outrank aesthetics. The institutional green painted door, encourages calm acceptance rather than resistance. Electrical planning is imaginative. Wall outlets are hidden like Easter eggs, while a single power strip courageously supports the microwave, refrigerator, and television simultaneously, humming softly as if aware of the stakes. The door hardware continues the minimalist philosophy. Locks exist more as an idea than a promise, offering just enough reassurance to sleep… eventually. The bathroom is where the Lemon Inn reaches peak expression. Water pressure is genuinely excellent, suggesting the plumbing remains proud and unbroken. The tub corners are accented with confident black mold, complemented by long black hairs clinging artistically to the side. Nearby, a dollar-store pop-top can of air freshener stands guard beneath the exhaust fan, ready to intervene. The bed, inexplicably, is very comfortable. The Lemon Inn: committed, unapologetic, and unforgettable. Then there is the bathroom, where the Lemon Inn achieves
