"The motel was very affordable, clean, and quiet. The bed was comfortable.
Unfortunately the room heater was abysmally loud .....approximating the sound of an F 16 Eagle fighter jet taking off the deck of a Ford class aircraft carrier on full after burner!! It was impossible to regulate it. Apart from high-quality earplugs,the only solution was to completely shut it down for the night (even though it was 26°F outside). But knowing full well what the situation would be, the motel staff did provide a very comfortable duvet to sleep under. My suggestion would be for the administrative staff to spend $75 to get a qualified maintenance technician to correct this malfunctioning heater
The other problem is the fact that the breakfast was virtually nonexistent other than a few hyper glucose infused sugary treats that only seven or eight-year-old children would love.
So the best solution is to obviously bring healthy
food with you in order to enjoy breakfast the next morning."
"Great breakfast, even greater Tuesday supper. Friendly staff. The pool was a little murky but a good temperature, hot tub nice and hot, little mini-pool with a rain thing was so fun for the kids. Very nice suite with dishes and a kettle, comfortable beds and couch. We'll be back!"
"We have stayed here several times. Both our last trip, and this one, the air conditioning never worked. Staff was great to offer a fan and bring one to the room, but the room gets into the mid-70s which for me is not comfortable. Clearly previous guests felt the same way as the thermostat was set to 50. The pool and breakfast are very good."
"The hot tubs were "temporarily out of order" but appeared to have been unused for a long time. No towels in the pool room even if we wanted to swim. The outside of the building had something loose and all night long we heard something flapping and making noise."
