Michelle

Liked: Staff & service, amenities
Staff were very kind and helpful. Our meals were really good. The room was clean. We were not comfortable because the smell of smoke from smokers in the tavern came into the motel room under the door. We had to put cushions along the bottom of the door to stop the smell. The smoking area is too close to the rooms.
