Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room and bathroom were very clean and well stocked with clean linens. The mattress appeared to be newer and was very comfortable. There was plenty of hot water and the water pressure was good. This facility is an older motor lodge (probably built in the 1960s), it is very well maintained for an older property. I would have given a higher level, if my unit had a deadbolt lock and a peephole on the entry door. This stay checked all of the things I needed in an overnight stay.

Easy in & out to parking lot right in front of bldg. Room # 102 was quaint, very clean, comfortable, and well maintained. Well painted and decorated. If ALL ROOMS are like this, we’ll be sure to tell family & friends alike for a possible stay in their travels. TV was a bit of a mystery as to how to turn it on & use it? Needs written instructions in rooms. Thanks for a very nice, comfortable stay. Keep up the good work. The Cline’s.
