We only stayed one night, quick trip up to see our daughter for family weekend at college. The room was fine for what we needed it for and price wise it was quite economical. It was definitely dated and there were some aspects that needed more attention than others. The dead insects on the windowsill were a little disturbing and the phone looked like it hadnt been cleaned ever. The tub had some serious staining to it. All of these items, again were minor but a little more attention should be paid when cleaning between guests.

This is an old fashioned motor court, not a modern fancy hotel. I like these nostalgic motels, but it might or might not be your cup of tea. The manager was sweet and helpful, eager to make sure everything was to my liking. The room was a bit dated, but neat as a pin and absolutely no unpleasant smells - not just nonsmoking, but no cleaning chemical smells either. The fridge/freezer was clean and cold, the microwave also clean. Plenty of pillows on a comfortable bed. There were windows front and back and a desk where I could work while in the room. The room would benefit from machine for tea and coffee. They only had coffee in the small front office. I bought a mug and some tea bags at the nearby Stop & Shop and microwaved water for tea which worked OK. Again a caveat; it did not bother me, but over the back fence was a trailer home neighborhood but they were well kept up with flowers in the yards.
