Pros:

Room was very clean, big comfy bed. Very nice staff and delicious coffee during breakfast.

There is a nosie coming from the AC in the room. That’s the only minus.

Pros:

After a long, hot day on the 127 yardsales, they were ready for us. AC was on good and cold. Small bar in the same building. Cold beer and good food.

This was such a surprise and charming motel! Caring, attentive staff and super clean room.
Pros:

This was the CUTEST little Motel and super clean. From check-in to check-out, it was smooth sailing. I would recommend it and stay again.

Cons:

The location of the room we were in had a lot of road noise. Next time, I would ask for one of the rooms away from the main road. Also, the AC unit was crazy loud. It sounded like an airplane. But I'd take noisy over nasty any day of the week! And this place was as clean as a whistle!

Pros:

The staff was very friendly and the room was perfect. I had to leave before breakfast so I can't comment on how their breakfast was. I was offered to join The Bees Knees which would have been wonderful to do if I wasn't so tired and didn't have to leave so early the next morning. They have souvenirs you can purchase such as t-shirts in their little shop inside as well. Very close to the dollar general in case you need something quick as I needed goodie powders for a headache so I just walked there. Really enjoyed my stay and look forward to staying again.
