Stayed for one night while on a long road trip with two small dogs. The owner/manager could not have been more friendly or helpful. The rooms are definitely retro but are in great condition and extremely clean. It was nice and quiet and the bed was super comfy! Will definitely stay here again.
Wonderful motel! Very clean room and kind owners! Thank you!

The Hotel is Dated, but reasonably clean and well maintained -- they should replace the wall outlets !! 2-prong without a Ground Prong the Internet enabled TV mighy be difficult to use if you are not tech savvy
An older motel, but maintained with loving care. We always try to avoid the big chains and stay at the family owned motels, and this one was perfect, The owners were very friendly and welcoming. Would definitely stay again if in the area.
Excellent service. Clean and quiet location. Lea Ann reached out to us as we were arriving late to arrange contactless registration. Whew! We had forgotten to do that….saved us from disaster! I would stay here again. Always appreciate local ownership.
The owners were so nice and keep the place well kept. I liked having a code for my door instead of keeping up with key cards and that my room had a ceiling fan, not just an air conditioner. Lovely little place, will definitely be back.
For the price, not a bad place to stay. It's clean, room is spacious, refrigerator and microwave in working order. The service is friendly, but only available up to 7 or 8pm, so you need to make arrangements for check in before that. Electric outlets are limited, so if you have a lot of electronic devices it may be a problem.
Amazing blast from the past with great service too
We absolutely loved the vibe of this hotel. If keeping the 50's 60's 70's theme and atmosphere was your goal then you nailed it. Extremely well maintained throughout. Reasonably priced and convenient. Womever owns and or operates it does an amazing job. From the very friendly check in gentlemen to the very friendly & pleasant housekeeper we met in the morning. We will definitely return for future visits with family!

I appreciated that Lea Ann had a bucket of ice in my refrigerator upon my midnight arrival. Nice touch.
I booked this room because it was pet friendly while we were in Hagerstown for a family reunion. As it turned out I and the dog were not able to attend. My husband stayed there and he said he liked it a lot and we would stay there the next time we traveled through with our
dog.
Friendly staff, very clean and quiet room, great bed and I slept like a rock. I will definitely make this my designation should I ever return to this location in the future.
We are coffee drinkers and As with some other stays that we did was the lack of a coffee maker in our room. Other than that this little motel was top notch!!
