This property is much less nice than a typical motel. The room smelled like mildew and there were spiders and hairs on the bed. We requested a room change. It took nearly an hour for this to happen and the communication was difficult through the process. We ultimately decided to drive home early rather than sleep here. The worst part is that the room was much more expensive than the Motel 6 that is across the street.

This is such a cute property! But once you enter the room, it is very sad. It needs help. The bathroom door knob wasn't installed properly, the privacy film in the bathroom is peeling off, there is no drain cover in the sink. That is just the bathroom! The door to the unit is not secure. The deadbolt is not installed correctly and doesn't work at all. There is no dresser or anywhere to put your clothes in drawers. Some of the artwork in the room is terrible - it could give you nightmares! The good artwork has scarred up frames. No one ever brought fresh towels, and nobody is ever in the lobby. The positives for the room are, there are a lot of outlets, there is a great working small fridge and microwave. And it is mostly a quiet place and is walking distance to a coffee and donut shop.

Hi, I want to express my surprise about the room I was given, as it doesn't match what is shown on Expedia. This is not what I expected based on the online description. I am requesting a refund.

This was a nice & quaint property, gave off a vintage vibe. Front desk staff (Daniel I believe) was very nice and professional. Overall, the room was tidy and nice, comfortable bed and fluffy sheets. Only downside was I chose this motel for the jetted bathtub. Don’t use the Jets. The water turned black and not as maintained as one would think (maybe that’s just me). Also, the deposit is $125 per night and I got the deposit back within a few days but not the full amount and don’t know why. Sharing that as I know I would’ve liked to know. Would I stay here again? Maybe

I had the smallest room which was great for me. Shower was great too. Nice to have frig & microwave in room but I want an in room coffeemaker; might bring one from home next time. Everything was very clean! Breakfast room/lobby had crazy, ecclectric decor and the one day I had breakfast, it was nice as well. Some broken window screens is only thing I saw needing repair.

Renovations were nice, the young man at reception was very friendly and let the manager know we were there. The area is a little rundown around, but was fine for the given price. However, received charges to credit card without explanation and have been unable to speak to management reached out both by email and phone but no response. I’m not one to write negative reviews this place was otherwise fine, but it seems given other comments that ability to communicate is an issue here

Won't honor online price; Don't be fooled by photo
Dishonest; would not honor reserved price- added ~20% "hotel fee" on arrival which I refused to pay. Clerk didn't have the authority to override it, then wandered off for 20 minutes while I tried to call the off-site Manager. She didn't answer multiple calls but finally called back 2 hours later and blamed Expedia for the "misunderstanding". No offer to meet the reserved price. Meanwhile they had already charged my card the added fee without my authorization. I asked why the fee wasn't on their website and she said it would result in fewer bookings. No kidding! Deceitful way to do business. Beyond that, the window screen was torn, so we couldn't get fresh air into the musty room. In the office, the coffee maker was out of order, the ice maker was out of order, and the toaster oven barely got warm, didn't toast.
