"The balcony had spider webs and dried berries all over the patio. I requested it be cleaned, but all they did was put it all into one bunch still on the patio. Breakfast didn’t offer much. Nice motel with a great view. People very nice. Big open lots for your dogs. We paid $120 for two nights just to cover our dogs being able to come. Kinda pricey. Overall, enjoyed the location and staff was nice."
