Good 2-star place. Dated but we’ll-maintained and very clean. Shower head was super noisy. Comfy bed. Wifi was poor.

Thank you for hosting, Helen!
I stayed a total of four nights. The place was very clean and quiet (my room was towards the back), though the motel was full. I did not rent a car, there were two shuttle pick-up spots within walking distance. In the evening, shuttle drivers would drop me off right by the property when I gave them advanced notice. Very conveniently located. Helen (the owner) is very nice and shared interesting story and useful trip information of the area. I enjoyed my stay there.
