Lakelawn B&B Motel

8/10 Good
"This is an older motel, but it has been updated and is very cute. Liked that we could park in front of our room. It didn't have A/C but has a ceiling fan that was adequate for the time of year we stayed there. The room was clean and beds were comfortable. You will need a long charger for phones if you are plugging in more than one. Only one outlet by the bed for charging. Liked that the tub/shower and toilet were separate from the sink. Makes it easy for multiple people to get ready in the mornings. The towels were soft. Breakfast was provided and was fine for a quick bite before getting back on the road. It isn't to far from shopping in town."
