Vintage Motel Provides Value and Comfort
My first time at this property, chosen for location and economy. Exteriorbwas very nice for this "vintage motel." Mattress was perfect for me...firm! Room was spacious and quiet. Parking surpasses its "sister property" so it's likely I'll stay there again. A good coat of paint and overall room refresh would be good. Also, a microwave would make it perfect!

Deplorable conditions, stay away
This establishment needs to be closed down for the deplorable conditions of the room. No smoke detector. No mattress protector , there were dead bugs on the bathroom and on the shower curtsin. Filth on the baseboards, they drilled holes for cable wiring, couldn't taje the time to vacuum up sawdust. Speaking of dust, there was so much dust on the tv stand, i wrote "dust me" on stand. If you hsve mobility issues, be awzre that theres a large step to get i to the room. I have said issues and i was afraid i would trip and fall gettin into the room multiply times. I didnt stay my second night, i took the hot and found another motel to stay at. I felt as though i was sleeping in a garden shed for all the filth and dead bugs in the room.

DO NOT STAY HERE!
This was by far the WORST hotel! It was dirty and smelly. It probably hasn’t been cleaned in years. Dead bugs and cobwebs everywhere. The mattress was disgusting and stained.

I like the convenience of the location. Close to everything and no need to drive to relax. I read previous reviews and find them accurate. You get what you pay for and accept those conditions. Clean sheets , wifi, and location was good

Close to town but needs cleaned better.
The ladies at the front desk were wonderful. The rooms needed a deep cleaning. The bathroom was very dirty. The towels were very small and rough. It advertised coffee and tea in the common area but there was no tea.

Got what I expected sort of.
First the good. Checking in was quick and staff is extremely friendly and helpful. The room was what I expected for an under $100 a night stay. A bed, tv, fridge, shower & toilet. The location makes walking downtown easy. The bad. It’s dated. You can tell they have tried to do some diy upgrades but that doesn’t help. Edges of desk, chair, nightstand, corners all chipped. Walls could use a good whip down and fresh coat of paint. Shower had pink slime mildew growing in the grout. We easily wiped it away with a washcloth. The walls had various colored splattered spots about knee high and lower. In the evening the parking lot is a stop for a ghost tour stop. Pretty entertaining to watch and listen to the tours. In all like I said at first the room was exactly what I expected. The staff is great and attentive. Just don’t expect luxury on a budget here.

Great price and location
Great location, within walking distance to The Angle, Copse of Trees, etc. Perfect if you're there to see the battlefield and spend a minimal amount of time in room. Very comfortable beds. Had 2 rooms, only 1 with a microwave but both had fridges. Well worth the money.
