The remote check-in went well. The room was clean and reasonably quiet considering how close it is to US-2. It is a well maintained older motel. Breakfast is pretty light,prepackaged, and unattended.

The room was adequate, but somewhat worn. It was clean. We did not see staff as it was a remote entry. The room smelled of stale smoke, which was difficult for us.

Very clean, efficient space. Quick and easy for my son and dog to stay. We got snowed in during a storm and they were quick to get things plowed and helped everyone get out safely. Thank you for a clean and safe trip.

I would not stay here again. It is too close to a road with a lot of loud trucks and motorcycles drivi g past all night. The room was small and the bathroom and shower were VERY small. The beds were on metal frame with no headboard and quite uncomfortable - plus flat pillows. We liked the easy contactless check-in, though I had to call the hotel because they didn’t email the room number and entry code I was supposed to receive. The room was very clean and the fridge and A/C worked great. Overall, it was just not comfortable for us at all and we got no sleep.
