The location was great, practically in the middle of downtown. The absolute best part however was the very sweet man running the place. We were very late arriving, so he called us to make sure we were still coming and then waited up for us to nearly 1 in the morning! REALLY sweet.

It was a great stay, the hotel was in the perfect location for what we wanted to do. Room was very clean but the pillows bed was very wore out. The shower was nice and very hot water. Was told that the total for the 2 nights was $199.28 but when we checked in the total that we was charged was $207.25 not sure why?

I was hoping, based on Expedia reviews, that this was going to be an affordable pleasant stay. The room smelled from a cheap cleaner and the appointments including the bedding the floor and other items were excessively cheap. It was noisier than expected to with hearing cars on the road right outside. While I understand having one person, perhaps the proprietor(?), working the place all day and night the person was not very friendly and up charge me for using a credit card. Really? At a hotel? Finally the bed headed cheap metal frame that squeaked a lot.

Love the veiw out the back window! But the room was very small. It would suit the "normal" traveler very well. And though the property was very clean, it is dated. It's a quaint roadside motel, and I was happy that we stayed there. Just wasn't ready for the limited space.

Comfortable night

The rooms are very clean, the linens looked new and pretty. The bed was comfortable. Nice rocking chair outside the room. Pretty view of the Lovely small creek behind the hotel. The couple at the check in desk were very nice. My sister and i would stay here again and i would recommend to friends and family.
