All I can say is, “at least there were no bugs”. The place is old as Dirt. Furnishings would not sell at a thrift shop nor a garage sale, and we felt like we were in a dungeon or prison cell. Literally painted block walls with electric wires and fixtures surface mounted on the walls.

The motel was refurbished and VERY clean inside. While the surrounding area was not the best, the motel was well lit. The staff was friendly and helpful. The diner and grocery store on either side of the property were very convenient for our needs. The road (Hwy 17) has a great deal of truck traffic during the night so a room not facing the road might be a quieter choice.

We were put in a room that had no electrical outlets in the bathroom, torn lampshades, yellow and stained sheets, smelly comforter, and yet charged the same amount that was charged to others with a remodeled room. We were told this was because we had a dog?!?! And, charged $45.00 initial fee for our small dog along with an additional $20.00 fee for the 2nd night! How incredibly unfair to be put into a substandard room just because we had a dog! After much discussion, we were reimbursed 1/2 our nightly charge, after canceling our 2nd night’s stay. The owners were overall nice when confronted…we will give them that.

They need to do way better for the money.
Bathroom walls and door were filthy. Shower curtain was dirty like someone with greasy hands grabbed it. The floor of the shower was covered in brown or orange sand. Left over soap from previous guest was still on the shower floor. Only had 2 towels in the bathroom. Room took 5 or 6 hours to cool off as the AC unit is too small for the space. Couldn't hear the tv at all due to it being directly below the AC wall unit and the unit is incredibly loud. Ice machine was out of order so you had to go to the desk for bags of ice. Bed linens were old and the beds weren't that great either. It looks like they tried to update the room but fell flat. We would have probably asked to change rooms, but the fact that it took so long for the thing to cool off, we didn't want to sit in another sweat box.

I was disappointed that the restrooms couldn’t flush I didn’t made a big deal of it because it was for one night of stay. I truly believe the water unit should filter more often I had to purchase water for myself and son to brush our teeth because the water taste really bad.

Clean, but way overpriced for an older basic motel
Whiles the rooms were clean and comfortable, the rate is way too high for a basic old motel. Would stay again if it was the only place to stay or defiantly stay if price was half what they charged. Half the current rate would fill all their rooms. Owners were nice, just too expensive, but all we could find on short notice.

I stayed in this property while passing through for the free internet wifi and a nice hot shower. I went zero for two. It was clean, but they had some kind of water temp regulator on the showers which resulted in a lukewarm shower. The wifi connected, but felt like 1990s era wifi speed and I had to just burn my cellular connection.
