What an amazing surprise this place is. Always wanted to stay in a roadside Motel and were expecting something a lot less comfortable. Awesome all the little details to make the stay memorable. Great snacks, amenities and even a booklet to help find everything in town one might need!

Maybe location is not really picturesque but actually cannot think of anything!

Amenities were exceptional. Staff was lovely.

Location. Very little to no access to property around the hotel. Room is very small for 3 people and the throws and extra pillows just get in the way. Only a desk chair. No chair with arms for relaxing. Utilizes the small space very well but a comfortable chair to rest in would have been great.

This has to be the nicest motel I've stayed my life of 72 years. It reminds you of the 50-60' roadside motels of my youth. But that's where it fools you, the outside is very attractive, when you enter the room it's as if you've entered a 4-star NYC hotel. I'm not kidding whomever restored/decorated interior are absolutely the "Best"! I've would have given it a 6-7 star rating if available. It had everything my wife would have wanted and more. Come on ladies it's not easy to satisfy you at times, but my wife was even blown away by the "Amherst Inn". Don't believe, try for yourself, you'll be glad you did.

No complaints at all.

I liked the entire setup and room. The renovations are nice and they had plenty of amenities for all my needs. Very clean.

The bed was just a little stiff for my personal taste and while the water pressure an shower head were great the shower stall was a bit small for me since I am a large man

Very clean room and comfortable. Liked the in-room coffee and snacks. Did not know it was a motel but only reason it concerned me was that I was traveling alone, it was late and I was on the end unit so I hurried into my room

Slight musty smell from a/c unit
