This hotel is on the outskirts of downtown old town, which is a plus if you want to escape from all the music and late night clubs. I did find it amazing that there were no sidewalks where we could safely walk to town (about a 3 mile walk) but this is not in direct reflection of the hotel outside of location. We were greeted immediately and were provided with coupons, directions to Old Town and several recommendations. The room itself seemed clean and tidy. There was a large 1/2 size refrigerator, mini-microwave, small coffee pot with iron and ironing board. The basic necessities were provided.

Cleanliness: tidy, no obvious stains, markins. Bathroom was clean, no mold or rust.
Bed: Firm, linens freshly washed (no stains), additional pillows in the dresser.
TV: Selections of shows were adequate - we didn't watch much TV - outside of checking out the local news or sports channel.
Basic small bottle of soap and hand soap.
Towels: small - as previously mentioned from other reviews scratchy, definitely not soft
Continental breakfast: Choice of raisin bran or a small honey bun and coffee - suggest planning on going out for breakfast or bring your own.

When staying at a economical hotel/motel, I am not expecting the Ritz - just a clean place to lay my head and this hotel provided that. The only time we were actually in the room was just for sleeping, showering, changing clothes and heading back to town. The day we were leaving I did smell insense burning.

Would I stay here again? Yes

Aside from a B&B, I have never met friendlier proprietors that really go out of their way to make your stay as comfortable as possible. It's a pleasure to make reservations, very accommodating--I feel like they know us personally! The area is quiet, the rooms are clean, NO BED BUGS! If you want a complimentary cup of coffee or a bowl of cereal, the front office has it available. We have no complaints.

The owners/managers (not sure which) were so nice, I hate to give a negative review, but this motel badly needs some refurbishing. Other reviewers have already mentioned the scratchy towels and the distance from the historical center of the town. We walked it and it is 1 - 3 miles, depending on where you are going. The room was clean but neded paint, esp the ceilings, and there were deep cracks between the walls and floor which needed caulking in the bathroom. The safe was broken and the blanket had holes and rips in it. Many of them. The fan did work and blocked out street noise and the bed was reasonably comfortable. Oh yes, there was not enough hot water for 2 showers either morning of the 2 days we stayed. I think the motel could be made to be much nicer and more comfortable by fixing these things.

This hotel is in serious need of some modernisation!! The staff seemed friendly enough. The facilities were very basic, the pool was right on the road and you wouldn't want to sit around it!

Unfortunately we picked the hotel as it was supposed to be close to the town but we had to drive in and pay for parking and in the evening we had to get a taxi which added to the cost of the stay.

The old town is very nice but be warned the restaurants stop serving early and we struggled to find somewhere to eat! The trolley bus tour is good if you are staying for a few days to use as a means of transport.
