Cute motel with great service.
They do a great job keeping the place very clean and nicely decorated. Great location with walking distance to town attractions and shopping. The room was cleaned daily and fresh towels left neatly wrapped. The walls are a little thin for noise transfer, but overall a nice experience.

Great Stay
Although it’s an older motel and could probably of been a 4 star rating just because of the dated facility but it is still a great little motel. It was very clean and felt safe. Great location to walk around town, etc.
