There is a quaint feel to this motel. I have stayed here and it was great for what it was. Alot of people only bash on here because they had a horrible experience dealing with the person who leased a room from them. Then cause they didn't get Thier way bash them on a review. The rooms are clean and the price is decent.
8.0
Smaller motel. Typically most folks stay for a longer period of time here. Not a location people use for an overnight stay very often. 1-2 star accommodations at best.
8.0
I did not actually stay at this motel but I had to comment on how nice it looks. I thought it was more of an apartment complex. While it's on a very busy road, it seems like a cozy grouping of rooms. I don't know anything about the pricing, but this motel is centrally located on West 8th Street if you are looking to go to Presque Isle and Waldameer!
