We really enjoyed our stay at the motor lodge, the staff were friendly and extrememly helpful. We had dinner at the restaurant and the food was really good, and the service was friendly and effecient. We loved how easy it is to access the historical site, even after checkout at the lodge. My only gripe would be how squishy the car spaces are but cars have likely gotten bigger over time and it wasn't a huge deal.

4.5 - Yes, staff were friendly. Rooms old fashioned and not fancy but comfortable. Meals were a good size and yummy. Everyone was accommodating to our requests and loved the bar area, very relaxing.

Room clean, good facilities, kettle microwave fridge. Would have like 2 double beds instead of a double and a single. Bathroom gave it 4 stars due to toilet running all night and the door did not close even if locked. Easy to find great location
