“The exterior might suggest a typical motel, but the renovated interiors offer clean, comfortable rooms with modern furnishings. I especially appreciated the friendly staff, plentiful breakfast options, and proximity to the Proper Pig restaurant. For an overnight stay, this place is a solid choice.”
