Very nicely renovated motel, our room was very spacious, the staff is helpful and hard working. The kitchen could use a few more items like a toaster, but they did have one we were able to borrow from the lobby. Free mini golf was a nice bonus too. I highly recommend staying here.

Property was recently renovated and very tastefully done. Staff was super friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the outdoor area and the mini golf. The kitchenette in our room was stocked with pretty everything you could need, minus a kettle. The only complaint we really had was that the floors were filthy, recommend bringing some slippers.
