This is an old motel but has been very well taken care of. Super clean. Even the baseboards were clean. There isn’t much to do here or restaurants but 15 min up the road has plenty. Owners were very nice and accommodating.

This property is easy to get to while traveling. It was older, but clean, updated, and cute. We walked to the second gas station down and got delicious food from a Deli. We would stop here again if we are passing through the area.

PDL motel

The folks that own this motel are very kind and friendly. It’s not the newest or fanciest place but it’s comfortable and very clean. I had friends in 2 other rooms and they felt the same way as well! Next time I’m going to the springs, I’d stay here again.

This is a very agreeable property. It’s simple, clean and convenient for visits to the springs nearby. The shower head was wiggly and there was a small hole in the shower wall, but other than that it was very well kept. I would recommend to friends

A very clean room. Everything in the room functioned properly. Nice and quiet. Great staff. I've stayed at 3-4 star motels where the rooms were not as nice as they were at this motel. I talked to another guest and he said his room was as nice.

The motel was very clean and the owners were very nice and helpful. They had their office closed and would only do business thru a window. Also they had no handicap accessible rooms.

Shower was very strong, door frame had a few spots where you can see outside, and the curtain let a lot of light in from outside around the curtain. Room was ery clean, and one bed was hard and the other very soft. Staff was wonderful, helpful, and friendly.. There is a gas station within wslking distance with friendly people. There were a couple businesses with bars on windows and doors. I would stay there again. Very clea .

Simple and Clean

This is a nice little old style motel just off I-10. It was clean and comfortable, no frills but it did have a nice mini fridge and microwave. We were there for a house hunting trip and werent in the room much but it had all we needed. It appears to be run by an older husband and wife team who were very friendly.

Great unexpected find!

Owners are very nice and accommodating. Our reservation didn't show up in their system but they still honored everything. My daughter really wanted a 2nd floor room and they happily gave us one. The room was clean and comfortable. I was pleasantly surprised with the size of the refrigerator. My only complaint is the shower head. It sprayed every which way unless it was in the center high-pressure setting.

The Managers were very friendly and very honest. I forgot a ring on the bathroom counter and they stopped me before leaving to give me the ring I had left in the room. This ring used to be my Mother’s. Thank you very much!
