“Good place to stay if visiting the Spings”
Great welcome from staff. Nice, old style motel where you drive up to your room. All single story to easily accessible. Nice outdoor area under shade. Decent, if noisy, air conditioning. Ok quirky restaurant nearby and a couple of old fashioned breakfast and burger places as well as a Subway are a very short car ride away.

“Well-appointed and spacious, this mid-century modern updated motel exceeded my expectations!”
Very clean, well-appointed standard double queen. Extremely spacious. Bathroom was nicely updated with good lighting and a nice window that could be opened. The counter cabinet with coffee maker, microwave and hidden fridge was really nice. Very comfy beds and chairs with new light fixtures and pillar lamp; amazing natural lighting. Loved the courtyard with bbq area and yard games. Cold drinks available for $1 in the lobby. WiFi was strong and easy to access. The landscaping was amazing! The location is extremely quiet and I slept very well! I will definitely stay here again.

I liked the area with the games and picnic tables. Absolutely great when having a little one with you. I also liked how close it was to the downtown area and places around.

“A little Gem”
Large rooms, easy check in, nice staff. Fabulous outdoor covered area with games, seating and BBQ facilities. Just a basic motel type but they have added so much more

“Loved the room and the location.”
No breakfast, had to drive since the restaurant that was close by didn’t open until 10 or 11. Large room, comfortable bed, wi-fi ok. Hate to mention this, but there were two frisky German roaches around the coffee pot, so we stored our food in the car. This is an old fashioned motel that has been recently refurbished. Overall a pleasant experience, slept really well.

“Bed bugs”
We are a couple on holidays. We discovered so many Bed Bugs when we went to sleep. We had to leave the motel for another one.
