Love the rocking chair porch. It was a great place to read and enjoy the the end of the day. Keep in mind that this is a pet friendly hotel so you can hear dogs barking if they are bothered by noise of people coming up and down the stairs, opening doors, etc.

I had a great time staying here and would definitely stay again. Great location. My only issue was the room size, but I booked same day as our trip so there were limited rooms available and I did not do as much research as I should have, so definitely my own fault. The single room was very compact and did not have a porch. If you're staying for more than a night, a suite is definitely the wiser choice.

You park right at the motel entrance. There is no onsite staff, but apparently you are monitored by video cameras. One guest had a giant rotweiller dog that made me feel uneasy when I was in the hallway with my much smaller senior dog. TV choices are what’s on Roku. You are encouraged to sign in with your own paid subscription apps if you want something to watch. Central air without a thermostat and limited air flow . But you can turn on the loud window unit all night to stay cool. It is what it is.

The place was actually pretty well run for not having a front desk. I'm old school and prefer people on site to receive you, but as online check-ins go, they were first-rate, and communicated well. It's a nice sort of BnB feel, and nicely kept up, renovated, and generous with items you may need. I would return here despite online check-in, check-out.

Great pet friendly place, has an unfenced area in the back for the dogs to run and do their business. Everything in the room was very comfortable only thing is the showers are small but as a tall guy you’re already used to that. We will definitely stay here again.
