Motel is centrally located to everything we wanted. It is an older motel but very clean and comfy. We had a king room with a balcony over looking the Withalacoochie bike trails. Helen our room keeper did an awesome job and met all of our needs. Would stay there again for sure 😄. Thank you

If you're here to ride the Withlacoochee State Trail, I highly recommend staying here. It's very clean and right on the trail at approximately 30mm. It's not fancy but it has a pool and a chain link, covered shed to lock your bikes in. Several places to eat just a few miles away, but otherwise it's a simple town with little else to explore. The staff was friendly and the rooms were very clean and comfortable.

The appearance of the property doesn't look like the pics on the hotels.com site. Cleanliness is not what was advertised either. The aircon unit was blowing very musty air and it made us feel sick.

Super Clean
This is a super clean Hotel/Motels Friendly Staff. The TV/Cable service is very very slow and is the only thing negative I can say about this Hotel. Prime location in a quiet area on the south side of town.
