The motel was clean and comfortable and after 10pm was quiet. We had coffee, tea, orange juice, cereal, hardboiled eggs, toast and more for breakfast. There was a wet area near the refrigerator though. Check in and check out were fast and straightforward.

Our room was clean and our check in person was very nice and helpful. The bed was comfortable and the motel was quiet. Some furnishings were a bit shabby and the bathroom sink drain had no plug - don’t drop your toothbrush or an earring.

Room was ok for a night rest stop. Check-in staff was friendly and professional. Ladies running the morning breakfast were rude and lazy.

It would have been softer to sleep on the floor. Beware of the low hanging rack. My husband almost took an eye out. No plug for the tub and the coffee maker was a joke. It was really hot when we first checked in, but the AC did work well once it was turned on. Not bad for a last resort place to sleep, but definitely not comfortable and not worth the money.

The owners father insisted that I pay in full up front even though Expedia had my card details. Breakfast was meant to be included but the office remained locked up the following morning. The following day my credit card was processed for the nights stay along with bank fees. I have called Expedia twice and 2 weeks later no refund. I will NEVER use Expedia again.

Good stay
Room was spacious. Mini-fridge was definitely MINI. Air conditioner in a strange location and VERY loud. Fortunately it kept the room cool. Parking directly in front of room was convenient. For the price would recommend.

Very Vintage. Owner and Family very nice and accommodating. Room was very clean and equipped with mini fridge, microwave, and coffee pot with glass diner coffee cups. Hair dryer and bath essentials provided. There is a sitting area under neat large shade trees to enjoy the wonderful weather and scenery. If you like staying in a home type atmosphere and non-chain hotels/motels I recommend the Prospector Motor Lodge. Oh if you are looking for a swimming pool you will not find one at this property. My rating is a 5.
