Will not stay here again
Not a good experience. Check in was a nightmare and the motel office was locked (did not arrive late), beds were hard and squeaky with only a light blanket, and our room had no hot water. The noise from the highway is loud and the rooms are minimally furnished at best.

We loved everything about this place except one thing, the water temp is way to cool. It was annoyingly tepid. I want a hot shower not an almost cool one that you step out of the spray and step back in after ya get cold to trick yourself into thinking it’s a lil warm. Except for that everything else was really cool and fun. Food was excellent at the restaurant too. Raise the water temp and 5 stars all the way

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Uncomfortable beds, pillows, blanket/comforter was awful. Lovely rainwater showerhead but caulk between tub/wall was non-existent, entirely black. Then the toilet overflowed, no one poo'd or used too much paper, so it had to be in the sewage line and we had sewage backed into our bathroom. Dont even want to think about the mechanics of that one. It was so gross. Never again.

Horrible check in experience
I arrived at about 11:00 pm and the front desk was gone, they leave at 10:00pm. There is a phone number to call but it put me in voice mail. So, I decided to check my email (I had been driving all day) and there were a few emails from the motel. But there was no room number or entry code email. I called the given phone number again and this time someone did answer. She gave me a room number but when I went to the room I could hear dogs inside, obviously it had already been assigned to someone else. She gave me another room and the problem was finally resolved after about 1/2 hr. Context: the temperature was in the teens in F, -8 in Celsius.
