As others have said, the property is very clean and comfortable, but basic. We were staying over for one night after an evening wedding. It was perfect for our purpose. It is well located for all area attractions. Janice went out of her way to accommodate our earlier arrival and it was much appreciated!

We enjoyed our one-night stay here. Terrific, unbeatable price. There was no TV but I don’t miss it as I was too tired from hiking all day and wanted sleep.

First off the property manager was johnny on the spot. Very friendly and helpful. The room was very clean. The building and furnishings were can I say a throwback to the 70's. We did not expect much due to the price. No amenities at all but did not expect. The manager had problems with our room and not having the keys to the room nor did she have a key to the adjoining room which was resolved by using the bed has a barrier to the door. My wife and I laughed it off but others may have been unnerved by the situation. It will be a memory we won't soon forget.

No fridge and microwave but the room is clean and tidy. The price is not expensive on this area and it is near to most of the sightseeing points.

My husband and I were impressed by the interior of our room. It was spacious and very clean- nice flooring, comfy bed, hot shower with good water pressure, great sheets and towels. We had a very quiet and comfortable night there. We enjoyed meeting Janice. She is friendly and a great asset to the motel. There is no microwave, coffee pot, refrigerator, etc but that didn’t matter to us as we travel with what we need. It was a fair price and we would definitely stay again.

We had a wonderful, relaxing and enjoyable stay at Plain Kate’s Motel. Honestly, when we pulled in, by the look of the property, we almost didn’t stay here. But we were greeted by Janice in the parking lot. She was very nice. She was running the place by herself and she was very busy cleaning the rooms when we arrived (an hour before check in). She offered to show us a room that she had just gotten ready with a king sized bed like we had reserved. Upon entering the room, we were immediately impressed by how large and spotless the room and bathroom were so we decided to give it a try. We were pleasantly pleased with how comfortable the bed was (even better than our bed at home). There was no AC, TV, microwave, refrigerator or WiFi (the usual expected amenities in a hotel) but we were ok with that. Instead of TV, we enjoyed quiet time relaxing & reading our books after a busy day of touring the beautiful attractions close by. AC might be a must in the summer but it was September and comfortable without. Janice was great and offered us a fan which was really nice since we use a fan nightly at home. The sheets were flannel and very soft and comfy!! We loved that! We felt so rejuvenated and refreshed each morning. The towels were white, clean, thick and luxurious!! Great quality. Plain Kate’s has so much potential. Hopefully the amenities mentioned will be added eventually. We absolutely would stay here again. Thank you Janice!! You are great and part of our fond memories here.

If all you need a clean place, comfortable bed and hot shower you will get that here. The door did not lock with the key when we left but you could lock it when inside. The internet really didn’t work. No air conditioning but ok for September. It was good for us just to explore the area for a weekend. The owner was super nice. I would stay again!
