I was there for five days. It usually smelled like pot when I entered the side entrance. The outside area needed a walk around to pick up trash. But it was a quiet hotel and my room was clean. The price was reasonable. I would stay there again.

Stayed 1 night and it is fine for that. Any longer and I'd choose the other hotel in town. The rooms are dated. They are clean, but may not feel that way. The TVs are tiny and the remotes not very easy to work. No snacks or drinks at the front desk and the vending machines only take cash. The shower was good. The beds were fine.

The bad - During check in was told there would be no breakfast, new owners and remodeling was going to happen, no big deal for us, as we would be going to Daughters place for breakfast anyway. When we tried to enter our room card did not work, after numerous attempts we notified personnel. After numerous attempts by hotel management making a new card, battery was replaced which didn't work either. The good - we were then moved into a King bed room, a lot nicer room for the money, an awesome upgrade, management really made an effort to please us. Will stay there again and can't wait to see the upgrades they will be making.

Old motel but ok

It is an old hotel. It looks old, sounds old and smells old. Other comments mention sketchy characters in halls but we didn’t see any. Loud party going on in room next to us and dog barking down hall. But then everything quiet. Very peaceful night. Bed not best but sheets felt clean. Shower had good water pressure and drained well. We bought some Lysol to freshen the room air and it was ok. Yes just doughnuts and cereal and coffee for breakfast but that is been mentioned often. Front desk pleasant. Whole motel should be renovated but it is was it is and it was ok. The room was serviced daily so that was nice

The front desk clerk was a wonderful person. The room was awful. Beds all rumpled, some black stuff on the toilet seat, soap grime in the bathtub, the first-floor windows were open when I arrived and I shut them but couldn't tell if they locked, there were crumbs on the floor. The clerk apologized and moved me to a different room where the windows seemed to lock better the beds were neater, although the sheets on one bed were stained and there was a weird brown stain on the bathroom wall by the toilet. Once I slept, I slept well. But I would only stay here again if there were absolutely no other choices, including campgrounds.
