The property looks like an old motor court that has been renovated. It is on the old downtown Main Street. We would stay again and recommend it to friends.

If you like the ambience of the 50s motor courts, this is perfect. Remodeled and very clean. No restaurant and it sits on the main busy road through town. This hotel says nostalgia!

I don’t specifically remember this motel, but there was only one on our trip that I would not go to again, but this is not the one! So we had a great experience there.

I got the room for my grandson who was traveling. He said everything was good and comfortable. He mentioned something sticky on the bathroom walls like old glue running down that dried and would look so much nicer if that was corrected.
