The motel was what we needed for our purpose.
Pros:

The location was perfect for our Baxter State Park destination. It is located just off the highway and next to an Irving gas station.

The room was clean and spacious. It had all of the appliances

We arrived later in the evening and the management was available by phone and text. We had a wonderful rest and were ready for a good hike in the morning!

Did not measure up, literally.
Pros:

Room was very clean, comfortable bed. Staff was quick to respond to an issue we had. Shower had good hot water. Convenient location just off the highway.

Cons:

The room was much smaller than we anticipated. Pictures on-line were really misleading. The curtains didn’t fit the window enough to close completely.
