Quaint
Booked for weekend trip. Cute remodeled motel. Check-in was easy, but they do not take American Express. Had to separate reservations that they were able to combine. Room was good, however, reservation said queen size beds and they were full. Talked with front desk and was told this is the size of beds in all rooms, except the one that has a king. Bathroom was small, but worked. Carpeting in our room needed to be pulled. The Bistro/Bar is cute and service was great, just wished they were open a little earlier for breakfast. Sauna was a touch. Overall cute idea

Nice try but….
Nice renovation but a lot of lip stick. Loud environment. Music could be heard through the floor in the morning. Heavy traffic outside made for a long night. They offered ear plugs but they don’t work for me. Late November and my window was unlocked also adding to outside noise. Didn’t care for the breakfast menu so went elsewhere.

Rustic renovated hotel
Cute hotel, could us some hooks in the rooms to hang things. Also lighting in the room was poor.

6/10 Good

The hotel was nicely kept. Great crepes restaurant attached. We enjoyed eating our breakfast outside on their patio. Unfortunately, the traffic was noisy until around 1am and then again after 5:30am. Earplugs were provided, but who wants to have to wear earplugs in order to sleep. The A/C was also loud.
