The ease of check-in was great -- all on-line. The room was bright and clean, but compact. A 2nd chair would be nice.

The owners did such a great job renovating this motel! I really appreciated all the small touches - there were plenty of outlets available for charging devices, they provided ear plugs if you were bothered by the road noise (I was not - I did not find it that loud at all), and I loved that they had large bottles of soaps in the bathroom to be more eco-friendly. For a one night stay, I have nothing to complain about and would recommend this place to anyone!

This was an overnight stay on our way to Canada. Even though it was a small motel it was so nicely decorated and in a beautiful setting. I loved our stay here!

Although lots of highway and train noise they provided earplugs and noise canceling machines. We found leaving the bathroom fan on was effective.

Really clean and well renovated property! Great amenities and again, SUPER clean!! The location is not near restaurants, but is near a gas station for basics. The train and highway nearby was the only negative. But I would definitely stay here again!!

This is the 1950s auto court updated with just the right modern amenities that sophisticated road ramblers require as the sine qua non of quality. The room is clean in the small details that matter. Everything is laid out immaculately. There's a pleasing, soothing air about the room. You feel wanted and welcomed.

Great place to stay after a long day of driving. Well equipped and comfortable. The street noise tapers off and wasn't an issue. Wish there were more windows and a view of something other than our car.
