My husband and I had a wonderful stay while visiting my daughter who lives in Pine Grove. Property is older, but clean and comfortable. And breakfast every morning with hot coffee was a welcome treat. If you don't want to spend a lot of money and not looking for amenities, this is the perfect place to stay. We will return.

This is a venerable motel, well maintained, clean, comfortable, convenient and reasonable. There is a liquor store attached to the office and it shares the parking lot with a good restaurant. We keep coming back whenever we are passing through the area.

I greatly appreciated the microwave & fridge, as well as the iron & ironing board in the room. Bed & linens were very nice & clean. I also greatly appreciated the Continental breakfast delivery to the box ! Only thing I really would have liked is a small coffee pot in the room. Cheers !

Hotel suites our needs. Staff was very friendly. The free breakfast was not quite what we were expecting. But in a pinch I’m sure it would do the job. Rooms are a little dated but clean and we felt safe.

I've been staying at various budget motels all summer on motorcycle trips. This place has been the best value by a mile. Nothing fancy, but clean and thoughtful touches abound. The office doubles as a beer store (with a great variety) and was open super late. Bonus-super motorcycle roads in this area!

Convenient location, liked having an actual key rather than a card. Room was comfortable but is in need of update. Carpet was cigarette burned and stained but over-all in good condition for an older motel. We woukd stay there again for sure.

For the price it was fine. Just a few upgrades but I know that’s expensive these days.
