The staff is very friendly and helpful. The rooms clean and have clearly been updated recently. We did find a lot of light in the room from outside that was difficult to block, but we still enjoyed staying there and would happily go back.

The room and the owner were great just be ready for a bit of an adventure
Staff was very friendly and kind. The room was clean and smelled great. Not far from Dover. Everything was walkable which was awesome. Me and my family would come again.

Clean room, comfortable bed, helpful staff. Road noise at night. Good value.
Overall experience was good. Convenient clean and efficient for the price. Definitely on the cleaner side compared to other motels. Shops and convenience stores are within walking distance.
The walls are quite thin and the motel is directly next to a main road so if you are sensitive to sound or have kids, be aware... Even though I stayed in a room furthest from the road, the sound of traffic still carried in pretty loud.

Comfortable bed
The room was clean and the bed was quite comfortable. It is a bit dated, and could use a bit of paint and sprucing up. Our room had only a blind on the window, so it was pretty bright overnight. I slept well and that was the purpose of ghe room. It was easy to get to and close to my final destination. Plenty of places to get food nearby. Friendly staff and cheap rate
I stayed here when there was a music festival going on in Dover. Other hotels closer were going for as much as $800 a night if you could find them at all. The owner of this place was super nice and accommodating. The rooms were clean and the AC worked great. Highly recommend.
Great location! Wonderful manager/owner from India who spoke perfect English! That's a huge plus these days!
Not advertised with microwave & frig but they were there!
Close to restaurants and downtown Smyrna.
Would stay again if ever in the area.

20 minute drive to Dover International Speedway. Walking distance to pharmacy, dollar general and Celtic Pub. Staff was nice and accommodating.
Stayed here with family as two couples in separate rooms. The location was perfect for an event we were attending at the motor speedway. Food option's, drug store and coffee spots in walking distance. Family owned and operated motel, secure & clean rooms, fresh linen offered daily, and friendly manager! Would return and recommend for future stay.
Staff was extremely friendly and willing to accommodate our last minute reservation when our camping was rained out. Very simple motel, good location in terms of hopping on and off the highway and there’s a pub right next door within walking distance. Bed was comfy and shower had good pressure. Would definitely recommend if you don’t mind a place to rest your head. Only 15 mins from Dover raceway. Again the staff was super friendly!

Simple & Comfy
The gentleman in the office was very nice & professional. The room could use some repair, especially the bathroom door. I was pleased with the comfortable bed and the full size shamoo, conditioner & shower gel dispensers in the shower. Loved the big towels too!
My flight into BWI arrived late and I had to learn to operate the GPS using my iPhone in the rental car; so, I arrived very late at the motel.I was greeted with a cheerful smile and a hearty welcome. The room was minimal but clean and comfortable. I enjoyed my stay. It had everything I needed.

Served it's purpose
We were there overnight for a vendor event. The room was clean. Walls are thin. We could hear the next door neighbors. We did get some good sleep once the neighbors quieted down.
