Last Minute Life-Saver

We booked this stay at about 6:30pm on Hotels.com when our previous plans fell through, and started driving. When we got to the motel at 8:15pm, no one was in the office. We opened our confirmation email and saw that the office closed at 8pm and if we were going to be later, we needed to let them know ahead of time. We weren't sure what to do, but eventually we found the owner's cell number and texted him. He and his wife came back and checked us in. We were so grateful! They were very kind. The apartment was clean and spacious and comfortable. We were very happy to have a nice place to sleep. The owners also recommended a wonderful breakfast place!

Comfortable Room

Comfortable room, but dated decor. The managers were very helpful and gave good recommendations on restaurants and other activities in town.
