Reviews and Ratings
My stay at this motel was quite unfortunate. I encountered severe check-in issues that left me sleeping in my car. The room itself was quaint but poorly insulated against noise, making it less comfortable. I did appreciate the warm welcome upon arrival and the affordable pricing, but the overall experience was very disappointing.
This motel is quite the experience, especially if you're looking to explore 'bigfoot country.' It's affordable, and while the room has its quirks, it serves its purpose for a short stay. However, be prepared for noise from the outside and other guests, which can be a bit disruptive. Overall, not ideal for a peaceful retreat.
The motel is definitely a unique spot to stay, especially if you’re into the whole bigfoot vibe. The rooms have a quaint charm, but they can be quite noisy due to traffic and other guests. While the staff greeted me warmly upon arrival, getting help can be tricky since there’s not always someone available at the front desk. For the price, it’s decent if you just need a place to flop down after a long day, but don’t expect top-notch amenities.
