A Good Basic Motel

This is a modest property. Not fancy at all. But it was clean, comfortable, and secure, which is exactly what I was looking for. Good location with several dining options within walking distance.

This stay was example of “ you get what you pay for.” Easy and friendly check in. Property looks great and well maintained from a distance. Beautiful flowers, fountain, and koi pond. Pool looked well maintained and other guests were enjoying it. Our original room smelled so strong— a mix of mold, dust, and super strong cleaning chemicals. We tried to air it out, but the windows had no screens and my attempt to open a super dirty window resulted in a pinched finger. We went to dinner and decided to ask for a room change when we came back. No problem to change, and the new room only smelled of cleaner, so we settled in. Lots of noise from other guests, but it was Saturday night, so we dealt with it. Shower was stained and broken down, so we slept and checked out as early as possible. That said, it was a third of the price of my usual Marriott brand in the same town.

The inn is old and has very few electrical outlets. Our room was clean but everything appears to be from the original construction. Beds were comfortable. We had our dog with us on the trip and they have special rooms for travelers with pets. This isn't clear until checkin. Staff we met was pleasant and helpful.
