The motel itself has a bit of age on it and it shows - but having said that it's clean, the beds are comfortable and the staff were lovely. The rooms have plenty of room to spread out. Overall, value for the price.

We liked the location of our room, right across from the pool. Kids had a great time in the pool. It was a very quiet location. Also a nice little walk next door to Lazy Moes for breakfast. Friendly staff!
