We really enjoyed our stay at this motel. When we walked in there were friendship bracelets and a welcome card from the staff! Very personable. The room was a little small for the 4 of us, but for the price for the weekend it wasn't too bad.

This was a last minute property due to a cancellation from another property. The room was clean and management was very helpful. My family felt safe there. Since we were in a room next to the street it did get noisy.

This was a quaint little motel in a busy area. It was pretty quiet most of the time. The room was very clean and well kept. I would recommend to the staff to put in a few more outlets and ask for a microwave.

Check-in/out easy. Staff friendly. Room 2 queens very clean, mattress/pillows excellent, room cleaning at request, towel exchange easy. Noise level was minimal. Uber/Lyft can easily get you where you need to be. We didn’t have a vehicle but motel had assigned spots. We didn’t have time to use the pool, but the area around s the pool was very clean and the water was clear; other guest were using the pool. Overall i would give 2 thumbs up 👍 👍. We would definitely stay here again .

Saltwater pool was very nice! Rooms were clean and super charming. Staff was unbelievably helpful as I left an item behind after checking out and they stuck around to ensure I could retrieve it when I had to drive back to get it. Very cute exterior and super secure.
