Excellent older motel that is well taken care off. Super quite. The ONLY recommendation is to install anti-slip decals in bathtub. As a 83 year old, I had to be extremely careful not to fall.

Bathroom was dirty. Staff were nice. Breakfast was packaged muffins and cereal. $385 for two nights seemed steep for what it offered. Was the last option available for the weekend. Would stay somewhere else if possible.

Great place for last minute stay. Everyone In our party (3 rooms total) did mention people above were loud. If you’re a light sleeper, I would recommend staying on 2nd floor. Bottom floor you hear everything. Didn’t hinder our stay but may be important to others.
