    Very charming non chain motel. We had all we needed, 1 bedroom suite with a kitchenette. Clean and comfortable. The owner was helpful and accommodating.

    I love the location on the very edge of downtown Vernon, just a three block walk to downtown. The suite was a one bedroom fully stocked kitchen with a vintage frigidare 1950's fridge that works beautifully, What a lovely flashback experience for...
