A lovely motel with potential. The staff are excellent. The rooms are a decent size. Looks like some renovations have been started but need finishing. Only warm, not hot, water in the shower.

No hot water

It was just a cheap over-night stay, I wasn't expecting much. The exterior could use a fresh coat of paint. The biggest issue I had was that there was no hot water for a morning show. The hotel claims that there is hot water but for my stay, the shower never heated up and the faucet only produced a trickle of cold water from the hot.
