It was an old fashioned motel , no frills and I like it but it could use just some remodeling. It was very clean and I liked that it was quite compact and I could park right in front of my room. It woukd have nice if the motel itself had its own breakfast bar instead of having to walk next door. It was a great short getaway and well priced.

Good evening , the property is connected to another property next to it , very out dated and dirty , tight fitted ! This property is worn out ! You should get your common sense together and not be associated with this property ! I would NOT recommend this property to anyone !! Very over priced !!

Nice place. Originally thought it was in the beach side of the street so we were disappointed we didn't have access to the Lake. Room was clean and comfortable.

If you like a typical ‘70s style motor lodge this is for you. Room was clean and comfortable. Microwave and refrigerator were clean. We checked in at 430pm and the floor was still quite wet from cleaning crew. It was very humid that day but the floor was still too wet. Other than that the staff was very friendly

It could really do some updates. The bathroom had bugs on the ceiling. Never had anyone clean our room, and give us fresh towels. The pool area was nice but it was nextdoor. It's was quite, and we felt save there.

We needed a place to stay in the area and the options were limited. It was fine and what I expected - nothing impressive, but I’d stay again if I needed to for a night.
