1 night stay

Just what was needed for a 1 night stay. Helpful check in.
Janet, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful property. Very nicely appointed room. Right near park with gorgeous view of the mountains. A little away from the traffic of downtown, but still walkable, or only a couple minutes by car.
William, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Mid range excellence

Fantastic setting. Quiet yet on a main route. Beautiful vista of mountains. Close to main amenities.
Maria, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This was the perfect small town motel. My room was super clean and included all sorts of amenities from clothing iron, portable stove, kettle, microwave, etc. There is a laundry onsite but you pay for the dryer and washer is free. There are cats who live on the property and they are all super friendly and cute! I was greeted by them all throughout my stay and it really added to the experience. 10/10 recommend!
Kong, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Interesting Stay

Nice room, unfortunately we could hear everything from upstairs, including during the night. Wifi wasn’t very good.
Julee, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

This place was nice except for the staff. We never felt very welcome. We asked for milk once and were questioned about possibly drinking it. We stayed for 3 nights and never asked for anything else. We very rarely ever saw anyone in the office and the man that we spoke with was very brusque and unsmiling.
Karen, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Spiders inside and no table and one chair. Only a desk with TV on it. My wife had to sit on the bed to eat her meals . It needs a bit of maintenance and outside our door was a little tunnel. Spiders everywhere in it.
Kenneth, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

The motel was fine but I was surprised to find an extra $20 charged to my credit card after my trip. The motel explained that was due to my two kids but the management did not inform me before hand of the charges for children nor did they ask about the number of guests. I would be happy to pay the extra $20 but surely it’s not the right way of doing business by imposing the charge without informing the customer. For anyone who books this motel, do check your credit card statement carefully to avoid any surprise charges.

Parking is very limited almost forced to park on street .
