Interesting but not many options in area.
Pros:

Close to food. Let’s be honest, there are not many options in this town. It’s old / quaint, & they do their best. Front desk gal super nice. Honestly, with some elbow grease & getting the neons working, this place would be bad ass. The rooms were marginal, but it is what it is. Try the Mexican place called El Canelo down the street too!

Cons:

Could use new bedding, & pull the weeds on Property. A wee bit of TLC goes a long way.

Pros:

Easy to find. Bed was comfortable.

Cons:

Rooms had ants. Carpet was dirty where it met the wall. Wood work had chipped paint. Grout in the bathroom was in very poor condition. Bathroom faucet was stiff and sprays water out of the sink. Very run down facility. Motel office is locked and you have to ring the doorbell for service.

Pros:

For an older motel the rooms were cute & quaint. Very friendly owners. You can tell they have full time residents residing there. They are pet friendly. Looks like they are in a remodeling stage … exterior that is.
