Great motel!
We really love this place, have stayed there at least five times and always try to make it part of our itinerary. The staff are great! The rooms are clean! They are pet friendly! There is a yummy pub in downtown proper (Ruby’s) about a mile from the motel. Stay here. ♥️♥️♥️

I booked this motel because it had an 8.8 satisfaction rating. We checked in, put our things in the room and left for dinner. When we came back we were watching TV for awhile and there was something crawling on my friend. we looked closer, tore the bed apart and the bed was infested with bed bugs! I wet a bar of soap and began blotting them up on the bar of soap.I took it to the office and showed it to the desk clerk. She was grossed out. They refunded my room charges and gave us keys for a different room. After two different sets of room keys for the new room, the door would not open. By now it was midnight. We loaded our car and left the property. Luckily another local hotel had an available room we could rent. No bedbugs there. I sure hope none came home with me.

We enjoyed our stay at the Stuart Motor Lodge. The staff were efficient and friendly. The room was spacious and comfortable and in very good condition. We had a very quiet evening and a great night’s sleep for a reasonable price. We would definitely stay again.

Clean and comfortable
We needed a quick, inexpensive place to stay while driving through the area. This was a perfect option. The motel is old and outdated but clean. Bed was comfortable (pillow was not) and it ha d everything we needed. Convenient location right off the highway. Friendly staff person. Would stay again if we passed through town

Good enough.
Its a bit hard to know where to turn in, just go in behind the Caseys. Check in was good. We had a room with 2 beds so the room was too small to have a good spot to put the suitcase. The microwave in the room confused me and i burnt my breakfast. But at least they had one (others don't) As others have posted, nice for a motel. P.S. i wish the hotel and motel industry would quit cheaping out on pillows. When the pillow is so old the fluff can only make a half a pillow, don't put it on a bed.
