No AC or Fan

We ended up finding a different room once we checked in. There was no AC no fan and room smelled just like weed which someone left some on top of the fridge. When asked about ac or fan lady said we could leave our door open all night. I’m a single mom on vacation with 3 teens over 20 hours from home.

We appreciate that the owners tried to make the rooms unique and in their own style, but it was unpracticle. Almost no room to put your luggage and toiletteries, because the room is too cluttered. An extra blanket would have been nice. And hot water at the sink. Didn’t try the shower with cold water at the sink.

Unfortunately the room that we had reserved was not available because of a roof leak. But the staff was able to graciously accomadated us with two rooms for no extra charge. We were so thankful. The rooms were very clean but a little stuffy. The only thing I really can say is that there was really no places close to eat or visit. It was only a place for us to pass through on our road trip. But the beds were comfy and the rooms were clean.

Not what I expected

It was clean. The fellow who checked us in was very nice. He let my son borrow a wooden puzzle. The room was adequate. It was clean. We had an extra bed which was good. No critters. There may be people residing at the motel. Kids were running up and down outside outlets room at very late hours. I wouldnt stay there again.

Went to check in at 9pm — office locked. Knocked — no answer! Had to call, then man was surprised that he had another check-in as they were sold out! Lady comes and wants ID without telling me that there was actually a room — since I was told that they were sold out, I kind of had an attitude and wasn’t quick with the ID. I had to ask if there was actually a room or not — she then tells me there is one but it is upstairs. The room was way overpriced, but we had been driving for a lot of hours and needed a place to stay. The bed had no box springs, and mattress was on boards sitting very low in a sleigh bed frame. The bedroom TV did not work! An extension cord was laying across the floor to the TV — very easily could have tripped on it as it was not taped or fastened down. Stairs were not safe, as the boards are pretty old and many steps were chipped out where they are nailed or screwed in to the sides. It’s a large room with a living room & a bedroom, but the living room only has one chair — sure would have been nice to have another chair to sit on!! Fridge is a small dorm-size fridge that is tucked into the back of a closet where a rollaway bed is stored! No idea about an ice machine — it wasn’t mentioned to me and I was too tired to deal with it….besides, I was informed that I only had until 10pm to let them know if I needed anything. I realize this is a small town, family owned motel, but as paying guests, make us feel like we are appreciated guests!!

The staff was friendly and responsive to needs and questions. The room was nicely decorated and you could park at your room door. When I arrived, the toilet seat was was dirty with visible marks. The staff quickly cleaned the the toilet. The comforter was stained and also had visible "stuff" smeared on it. It definitely needed to be washed. I would stay there again if it were cleaner.
