Good price. Couldn't shower...
So, for the price I thought this is OK. Did have to ask for more TP because there was none. It did snow overnight so we had zero TV the next morning. Then the shower. The knob for hot/cold just spun. We couldn't shower. End of review.

Very quaint motel. The rooms are large and very clean. The gentleman running the place was so nice and accommodating. There was several options close by for food... All over a very nice experience

Though the room needed to be updated it was surprisingly clean. The beds were very comfortable. The motel was close to the interstate but was not a noise issue. The price was right and would definitely stay again. I would recommend additional locks on the doors

Although I was told by a State Trooper that this location had a bad reputation I found it comfortable and quiet. The staff seemed ambivalent and they weren't even around when I went to check out. The room was ckean and teh bed comfortable. The shower pressure was good and it was quiet all night. I would recommend this for future stays with the hope that they would work to improve their reputation with local authorities.

Warning!
Strong smell of sewer gas! We ran water in all drains in case the drain traps were dry - but it did not help. Owner moved us to another room but it had tha same smell. Wife was feeling sick. Owner tried to move us again, but by this time we had enough of their lies. We left and got a room in a nearby town. The owner would not give us a refund - even though we did not stay the night.
