AC was broken. 45F outside and heater was a movable room AC/heater unit. Oddly the unit was dripping water like condensation before turning off and blinking red. Very noisy and loud Manager said he would look at it when informed. Broken towel rack. Water pressure and temperature varied widely while bathroom. Out of shampoo.

Would go back!

The place has clearly had a major overhaul recently. By far one of the nicest motels of this type we've ever stayed in. Staff were friendly and respectful. Beds were comfortable for everyone, all ages!
