Like a visit to Grandma's House

We loved it here! Travelling with our teens - coming here felt like going on a sleepover at Grandma's house - in all the right ways. Cozy nostalgia - from the long carpet to the fake plant on a shelf, to the shiny bedspreads - it was quaint & comfortable and felt familiar and welcoming. Room was very spacious (we had the 3-queen room) and the shower was nice, beds were comfortable. Quiet area. Breakfast left much to be desired, but we made do. Would stay here again.

Disliked: Amenities
Office not open. Key underneath door mat with another customer key. TV does not work. Would not recommend Bristlecome motel and would never stay again, unless of course you like having someone else with keys to your room and a TV that doesn’t work.

The rooms are clean and well kept. Unfortunately the walls and ceiling are very thin and I could hear everything the upstairs occupants were doing. I was only here for 1 night and the room was adequate and priced right for a quick stay.
