Clean room and in room coffee - just what we needed.
Pick up breakfast was available, and taken, with choice of juices.
I would stay there again and recommend this choice.
Nice older motel style accommodations. Rooms were dated but in nice condition, clean, comfortable, hot shower, working a/c, comfortable bed, nice towels, and very nice people working the office which I assume are the owners.
The front desk person was probably the most friendly clerk I have met in many years. Air conditioner worked fine. There was no breakfast of which I was aware. Bed was comfortable. Decor was nice, but the carpet should probably be replaced, since it was very worn. I would stay there again.
Was very impressed with how clean our room was! I wish they had a longer window than the 2 hours in which their breakfast is available, but that’s definitely better than nothing. Overall, was very happy with our stay and will return!
air purifiers in the room were nice.
very clean
options for "convenient" outlets was minimum. Only one near beds. Had a metal ring cord holder attatched making it impossible tonise both plugins.
although i understand the why, not being able to turn the air lower than 68 was
