Absolutely everything. Impeccably clean and well maintained inside and out. They've thought of everything and offer the quality of a motel/hotel at less than half the price. They obviously take great pride in their motel, as they should. Extremely well done!!!!🤗. Highly recommend this.

We loved it! I have stayed in this motel already in 2016 and I was very pleased then. This time, I was highly impressed by the new renovated rooms. Everything is brand new and the bed (mattresses) are so comfortable! It is about 15 mins drive away from the 17-mile-drive and offers everything you need. Highly recommendable.
