My room was clean, comfortable, and the water pressure was great in the shower. My room was warm also. I knew ahead of time that there were no ammenities like a television or internet, so I planned accordingly. Janice was lovely and welcoming. I will be staying there again.
My favorite place to stay in the area. Rooms are very clean and in great condition; clearly well maintained. While they don’t have TV and coffee makers in the room (doesn’t bother me) the beds are super comfortable and rooms very spacious.
As others have said, the property is very clean and comfortable, but basic. We were staying over for one night after an evening wedding. It was perfect for our purpose. It is well located for all area attractions. Janice went out of her way to accommodate our earlier arrival and it was much appreciated!
We enjoyed our one-night stay here. Terrific, unbeatable price. There was no TV but I don’t miss it as I was too tired from hiking all day and wanted sleep.
I love the comfortable sleigh bed in my room. There was no TV, but there was WiFi. Room was spacious and clean. Name of motel is All Ways Inn and it is run by Plain Kate Inc. The restaurant was closed

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The room was clean. It was a basic motel room perfect for our need . Owner checked us in as soon as we arrived. Friendly and gave advice of nice place to eat right down the street.
First off the property manager was johnny on the spot. Very friendly and helpful. The room was very clean. The building and furnishings were can I say a throwback to the 70's. We did not expect much due to the price. No amenities at all but did not expect. The manager had problems with our room and not having the keys to the room nor did she have a key to the adjoining room which was resolved by using the bed has a barrier to the door. My wife and I laughed it off but others may have been unnerved by the situation. It will be a memory we won't soon forget.
