Nicely remodeled motel, lobby and room were beautiful. Wall unit HVAC was jet-engine loud whenever running, and was needed due to chilly temps. Same with fan in bathroom. Why make it look so nice and leave the 1960's equipment? Would have appreciated refreshing of the towels and emptying our trash during a 3 day visit without needing to pre-schedule it during certain hours. Sideways Lounge was fantastic, great service and drinks.

Do not get fooled by the name, "Sidways Inn." Kind of a weird name. This inn was excellent! The staff was excellent and several snacks in the lobby upon our arrival. My wife and I enjoyed this place very much.
