We have been to quite a few motels, and this motel is the exception. I was so impressed with the cleanliness, the room was not musty, the dishes were clean and the bathroom was superb. I would highly recommend this place, but I know my family would be returning to this motel all the time. Keep your standards up 5 star stay
