A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“It’s a bit outside the main downtown area, but still just a five-minute drive away. The family that owns it is very accommodating. Even when we called in the middle of the night about a minor issue, a family member came out in the cold to help us.”
“The motel is well situated, the owners are friendly and kind. I adore the fact that they accept dogs, my only two suggestions would be to remove the carpet and renovate a little in the dogs allowed rooms. Dogs owners deserve a nice room too even if you do it budget friendly wise. Second suggestion would be to make sure the sink is well glued to the base of the vanity, we got scared. It was still worth the money!”
“What a great little spot. Right off the highway. Rooms were super clean and large. Bathroom was wonderful. After 10 hours driving the jacuzzi tub was a wonderful surprise. Would definitely recommend.”
“Nice place with nice people, allow dogs, and had cords to plug your car into in the winter!!”
