Nancy, the manager, was very helpful in providing information and made the checkin process smooth. She even gave our little dog treats! She made it a great stay.

Nice little place. Room clean. Beds comfortable. Nice staff. Small breakfast options but enough to satisfy. Quiet place.
Enjoyed my stay. Nancy at the front desk was awesome and friendly people staying here. Was able to park my bike right outside the room. Bad storm last night, but I didn't hear a thing and slept great!

We were riding the Paul Bunyan Trail when a thunderstorm came rolling in. This was a decent place to spend the night. The front office person was friendly and helpful.
Nancy is to sweet and accommodating. I had to check in late and she was so kind. The room was very clean and actually very quiet. It's convenient to the places I need to go to.
Our stay was good. The room isn't anything special, but it was an affordable option to the resorts in the area, and we just needed a place to sleep at the end of the day. Nancy was fantastic as a hostess, and she was eager to assist with our requests. The continental breakfast is spartan, but we weren't counting on it for our morning meal anyway. It was a small room, but it was clean and comfortable.
Staff was great!
Room smelled bad
Spiders!!!
Price was way to high for what we got

Right off the main road so easy to find. Easy check in and friendly staff. It was a comfortable stay although heaters could use some updating. I wanted to warm up the room a bit so I turned on the heater. It made such a strong odor I had to turn it off and open a window.

The room was as bare bones as any I’ve ever stayed in. Amenities sorely lacking. However, the check in woman was amazing. Nancy was friendly, courteous and helpful. Plus it seemed she was a one-woman show. REMARKABLE
This motel is very basic. It offers no amenities. It needs quite a bit of maintenance and TLC but it is clean and the bed was comfortable. We needed a place to stay because we were in town for a wedding and didn’t want to make the 2+ hour trip home afterwards.
