    Mattresses could be updated, felt the springs and sqeeking. Floors were dirty, also had a boot print in the bathroom. Room had slight old humid smell that didn’t go away even when windows were open the whole day and night. Could have extra pillows as the sleeping ones don’t give enought support to lean on them when watching TV.

    Cute little houses with private parking spots. Very basic and priced ok. Convenient check in and out.

    It was nice that they offered a continental breakfast (rare after COVID!) but the options could be improved.

    Really good option for the price. Friendly and easy check in. Very clean. Quiet. Small but nice rooms. Good location - central but off the main drag so peaceful.

    As with other vintage motels, the outside noise came right through the walls. The old air conditioner was loud and cycled. The outside temperature was comfortable but the windows were old and did not stay open. The tp was rough and there were no tissues. And the floor was dirty.

    The mom and pop motel was quaint and the room was updated nicely. Parking was good. It is located right in the center of town, walking distance to many restaurants. The room was small, but had enough surface space for one person’s things. Breakfast was adequate.

    Although very clean, the rooms were old and small. Not enough room for two suitcases. This room had no microwave or refrigerator. The least desirable feature was the unacceptable pillows. The pillows were very thin and even had unmatched pillow cases that were clean though very old. It advertised a "continental" breakfast with very little to choose from. We went "out" for breakfast.

    This motel has a nice grassy "park" in the back on the property. It has small "bistro" tables to relax and enjoy the day.

    The lighting in the room is too dark especially in the shower. And many crickets get in the room. I killed atleast 4 in one night.

    Not getting charged for a room I did not use.

    Booking.com said my selection was not available. I checked with the manager who Verified I had no reservation. So I continued driving. But I got charged for the night even though I did not stay.

    The bed was dreadful. A really old sprung bouncy mattress that squeaked every time you moved and only one pillow each. Also the room was crazy hot and you couldn’t open the windows because the latches were broken. It did have air con but it was like a jet engine

    It was clean great shower and quiet location with parking outside room

    Linens on bed too hot for the season. Air conditioner too loud to hear television. Had to prop window open with shoes. Continental breakfast coffee average and no gluten free. option except clementine oranges. Some were spoiled. Needed a second luggage rack. Room spelled very perfumy

    Breakfast was average, coffee average. Newly remodeled bathroom, non-carpeted linoleum floors. Location close to Main Street and restaurants. Hosts at front office were kind and thoughtful. Book about the Buddha in room refreshing change from classic bible. Peaceful quiet surroundings with seating outside in trees and grass.
