Looks much better on the inside but the pictures on ******* are a bit more "glamorous" looking than it really is. However it was very clean and cozy. Would come back again.

The room was clean, big and open, with a coffee counter and space to eat. I stayed when it was below zero outside, and the room was rather cold; however the inn supplied a portable heater and that did the trick in keeping us toasty warm. Pizza and snacks within walking distance. Enjoyed the stay.

Jenny did an excellent job communicating during a difficult situation. The power went out because of a wind storm, and we had to find a different place to stay because it was too cold to tough it out at this motel.

My husband and I somehow locked both keys in our room 30 minutes after we checked in. The front desk attendant got us back in right away. Clean and comfortable.

It was a great hotel with a friendly manager ; Jenny. She even accommodated us with an extra heater. Us Texans was not used to the base board heat and need a little extra , especially at night. There is no kitchen but they do offer a small refrigerator and a microwave. This property does not offer long-term rental but for the few days we were there it was wonderful. Would stay again if in that area. Five stars!
