Staff was great and super friendly. Bed was a little hard and old could feel the springs. Not much in way of amenities. But my trip was quick and only there to sleep and shower. I would stay there again

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Rooms, Lobby, & Rooms where very clean. Staff was welcoming and kind.
Very old, we expected that. Friendly front office lady. Animal friendly. Clean but was in need of many repairs. Heater worked well, but unable to open the window for fresh air. For the price, we made it work for a quick stop over and hot shower.
The property is in need of an update but the most important thing was that it is clean. The lady on reception was welcoming and friendly - she seemed to do pretty much everything around the property. A very good stay, thank you.
It is a hidden gem of motel. Our hikes was at Stanley and stay at Stanley was 350 per night . This place was only 100. Dining options was great around . Room was clean and beds comfortable. Lisa at front desk was sweetest and friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend this place.
