If you have a bad back, do not stay here. In my room the tub was lifted (there was a step to get in it). So if you are over 5’ tall you will not be able to wash your hair unless you do a back bend or bend over 45 degrees. Not sure what kind of bugs they are but I killed three. The bathroom wall by the toilet had a large hole in it.

Great Place!

This motel was great. This is our second time to stay there and we have enjoyed both time. It is our halfway point to visiting our daughter and her family. It is walking distance to the Current River.

The motel was very clean, the staff very friendly and helpful. And while we did not use the pool it looked very well maintained and clean. The TV in the room was fine, had a great picture. However, it is an old 60's style motel that has been somewhat updated. It has a window unit air conditioner that did cool the room just fine. A comfortable chair to sit on in the room would have been nice as well as a small shelf or something in the bathroom to put your toiletries on. The main negative and the reason why we would not stay here again was the bed. Someone had commented on one of the reviews that it was like sleeping on box springs and that pretty well describes it. When you sat down you actually bounced. The bedding was fine and the pillows were comfortable but not the bed. Maybe it was just our room. In conclusion it is fine for a night or two but if you're staying longer look somewhere else.
