This is a pretty historic motel that has been renovated recently to bring things up to more modern standards. The decor is very nice, and adds a modern touch while keeping the original vibe of the place. There are some limitations in an older motel building like small bathrooms, not a lot of power outlets, etc. But our room was spotlessly clean, well appointed, and the bed and linens were all comfortable. That, along with a very reasonable price and convenient access from the highway make this a great stop. We also had drinks in the on-property bar, which is small but also nicely done. Great job on the property, and if we're passing through again we'll be sure to stay here

This is what you get when young, creative people renovate an old hotel and put things in that they think they would like. I love how they honored the history of the hotel, combined with amenities and additions with guest comfort in mind, with an eye to sustainability and efficiency. Well done!
