It was perfect for my needs. The price is right, the room ample and clean, nice king size bed, water pressure in the shower amazing. I'll continue to explore this area after a good-night sleep. ##### Susy Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John Apr 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great little motel, would stay again for sure!

Thank you for a quiet, pleasant stay! ##### John Stayed 1 night in Apr 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Connor Sep 8, 2025 Liked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort Disliked: Staff & service #### No communication for door being left open The room was very nice and the location was wonderful. Communication with the property is awful, however. We had lots of trouble checking in and after we got our keys, we found our room door open. The room was rather dirty but it's impossible to tell how much of it was actually the room being dirty, and how much of it was the door being open for anything and everything to get into the room. Despite reaching out several times to the staff via the check-in desk, phone, and even their text option, no one ever reached out to us. It was a gorgeous area and easy to get to and find, but I would never stay there again. ##### Connor Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jessica J Jun 8, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great overnight stay! Super comfortable bed and pillows. We slept well after the trains stopped whistling. Very spacious room for the two of us. Love the idea of how to check in to get the room key. Owners/managers very attentive to questions in texts.

Responsive Staff. The rooms are clean. When we ran out of facial tissue, the staff was very responsive to replace our box. I put a 4 star on eco-friendly as I didn’t see anything that promoted recycling. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joyce and Carl Jul 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities All good, unusual check in for us.

The check-in process was different from the usual, as they have implemented automated services, but it was smooth and hassle-free. It's clear that the motel has undergone significant updates, and they are transforming it into a place people will really enjoy. After a dinner in town, we returned to the motel and spent some time relaxing outside in their comfortable Adirondack chairs, taking in the beautiful view. Overall, a wonderful stay that I would recommend to anyone looking for a cozy and modernized retreat. ##### Teresa Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Matthew Sep 17, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service King size bed with large windows to let in natural light. Check in was automated and very easy. Housekeeping knocked on the door at 8:30am to see if we had left (they didn't announce themselves, but later learned it was staff and not a misdirected customer). Housekeeping knocked again at 9:30am and opened the door as they announced themselves before I could reach it while partially dressed. Check out was supposed to be at 11am, but felt like we should have been out of the room before 7am. ##### Matthew Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Oct 5, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Pleasant stay! This motel exceeded my expectations for the price. It’s very clean and quiet. Great water pressure and the bed was super comfortable. Check-in is a little different as there is no front desk worker. You will get a text before your arrival with a code that you enter at a kiosk in the lobby and your key pops out. It is simple. It’s also worth noting that they do not do early check-ins before 3pm. My biggest complaint is that the WiFi connection is slow and there’s only a Roku tv; no antenna/live channels. This made watching tv in the evening hard because every few minutes it would lose connection. My coworker in another room had the same issue. The room was also quite dark even with all the lights on. Overall I had a great stay and will definitely be back! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### steven Dec 27, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Perfect stop for the night. ##### steven Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Addie Oct 5, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Good quality for the price! ##### Addie Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### YESU Sep 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Nice ##### YESU Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Michael Oct 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Clean and comfortable.
