This motel was amazing. It was spotless clean and had everything you needed. What was extra special was the little touches to make you feel at home, a warm blanket and little coffee pouches and treats on the bed. We would absolutely recommend this place to stay.

Great find! The Mackenzie Motels was a wonderful find! Dont let the exterior fool you, each room was nicely decorated, warm and cozy. Nice small kitchenette area with coffeemaker, microwave and refrig. Our only watch out is there was no staffed office to check us in but we were given instructions for retrieving a key from a lockbox. Unfortunately we checked in after dark and there was no lighting over the lockbox. This made it feel a bit sketchy but it all worked out. Highly recommend this accommodation!
