Great value!! Room was cute and clean and bed was comfy. Shower was amazing and bathroom quite spacious. The painted ceiling in the room was fun and so were the starry night lights. Manager was friendly and property felt safe.

Great stay! Wonderful manager.

For the low price, this place is amazing! Really nice manager too. Their website crashed and led to us accidentally booking four rooms (four nights) instead of one, and the manager checked in with me over phone ahead of time so we were able to catch it and he offered to cancel the other rooms, no issues, no fees. He was happy to help us save that money and I really appreciate it. The room itself was very spacious and clean. Big bathroom, very comfortable king bed, vaulted ceiling with a pretty mural of the sky (& an optional black light you can turn on to see stars on the ceiling as well as how clean the room is). Felt like we were staying in a friend’s guest room (except with amenities like a microwave and fridge). We were able to check in really late in the night/early morning, and check out early too. Overall a great stay!
The black light ceiling! Even cooler in person

Horrid bed but clean and spacious

This is a roadside motel. Whole clean and spacious, it was the single worst bed I’ve ever (not) slept on, bumpy and with springs in my back. There is nowhere to put any clothes but if that’s not a concern then you should be fine.

Everything was decently clean. The team was extremely friendly and welcoming! My feet were dirty from just walking on floor when I first got there. Shower struggled to get warm…

Delightful gem

The motel was lovely. The room was clean, smelled wonderful and the pillows were amazing. The ceiling of the room had the night sky painted on it and there was a switch on the wall that allowed you to see it by turning on a black light discreetly tucked behind the tv. The ONLY drawback was not the fault of the motel - the area has a high transient population and they were aggressive when not given cigarettes they requested. City police need to do a better job of moving them along.

The room’s wall paper behind the headboard and painted ceilings was unique. My daughter enjoyed them, especially at night when you turn on the black light and a painted galaxy appears on the ceiling. The only downsides was that there is very limited tight parking (can and will get blocked in in certain spots), the walls are very thin (so quite noisy), and bed was very stiff with uncomfortable pillows. The center legs to the bed frame were also bent causing the bed to cave in the middle. Otherwise the rooms were very clean( just like photos) and staff was friendly.

This was the nicest motel I’ve ever stayed at. It was an unplanned stay - needed something last minute and hopped online to look. Arrived late, didn’t feel like sketchy people around. Check in guy was nice and let me get ice after hours. It’s a small place, with small but adequate parking right in front. Outside in good condition with welcoming sunshine yellow doors on rooms. Inside of room was clean and decor was delightful - a colorful mural taking up most of wall that you see upon entering, and a sky scene with birds on the ceiling. Pretty white wooden shutters on windows, nice headboards, good bedding, and comfortable bed. Bathroom was long and spacious for a motel, with a high window letting in natural light. Cute mini-fridge. And no carpet. Very nice all the way around. Didn’t see if there was breakfast option. Is in town, so some street noise in the morning - but nothing that woke me up. If I was going to make a suggestion, it would be to add one of those door locks that allow you to crack door open, while still being latched - a 2nd lock like that gives an added feeling of security. Thanks so much for a great stay!
