Room was beaten down place, mattress had stains all over and red ants in both the beds. Washrooms were dirty as well. Water in wash basin was extremely hot even with a small adjustment, we burnt our hand multiple times. Carpets on the floor was extremely dirty. Overall, I wouldn’t suggest the place.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
No blanket on Bed. Broken cabinet door. No fresh coffee, coffee on “warmer” was only mildly warm not hot. Staff unfriendly. and only toast and packaged muffins. No bagels, English muffins. Fox News blasting during breakfast. Don’t need politics with my meals!!!!
The staff was great . We were there as a group they let us play poker in the office lounge after hours . The rooms were clean and the motel is close to everything .
A cute motel right off the highway. Don’t neglect the garden space in the parking lot, they did quite a good job. Almost considered staying again on my way back from the Redwoods up north, but plans took me a different route. Good motel
