The Rosebud could not have been better.
This motel is great value for money. The managers were very friendly, helpful and took care of our every need. This is not a fancy resort hotel but a simple bed to lay your head when on the road. Quiet and comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed and was perfect. We would be happy to stay here again!

Super CLEAN overall with a well designed bathroom with thoughtful extras. Comfortable bed and the best ever pillows! Unique concrete block walls for soundproofing between rooms! Only concern is:..... that as 'light sensitive' sleepers,...in summer....we desperately needed blackout pull drapes. Otherwise,, thanks for a wonderful stay. We will come back.

Exactly as expected.
We did a quick 1-night stay while on a family vacation. It's what you'd expect from a small motel - beds, tv, tub bathroom, mini fridge/freezer, restaurant nearby. It was clean and had everything we needed for a rest. Downside is it didn't have any real eating area in the room so tough if you bring food in (though there were picnic tables on the lawn) . The bathroom was also quite cramped for us and kind of a DIY reno situation. All in all, not super for families, but after spending the night before camping, this was a welcome oasis.
