This motel is a gem! Modern amenities (cable TV, refrigerator, microwave, coffeemaker); friendly staff; very clean. On a road trip, I like a motel where I can drive up to the door of my room; this motel was perfect. Also, it is just a 3-minute drive to the state park or to the shops and restaurants on Broadway.
