I just checking in Sunday afternoon yesterday with the help of my church pastor pastor Dylan This is a very nice motel. The young lady at the window and what appeared to be the owner of very friendly and welcoming they are very nice The room is very very nice. I really love the old beautiful style furniture. The refrigerator is nice everything is well placed the microwave is red and it reminds me of 1950 s retro style appliances LOL There are two generous nightstand tables right next to my bed the bed is comfortable the pillows are comfortable and I especially appreciate the soft warm blanket the bed is nice size too I would recommend this nice informal motel to anyone and it is right behind the extra mile gas station in front of it which makes it convenient to go get some coffee Very very well run motel
