Small, older motel. Priced right with surprise amenities like a fridge and microwave. Would definitely stay again if I'm in the area.
Beautiful scenery, decent rooms, good tenants...Many people are longer term guests...Full Size with 2 beds will run you $50-$55 a night..Weekly rate $240-$270..She changes the price..Room includes cable television, microwave, fridge, some rooms have telephones, and the WiFi is free but it doesn't always work...They have a couple Family rooms & the motel itself is composed of 2 building & is sitting on alot of beautiful land...The Owner's mother is often in charge, so things tend to change from week to week. Check your bed before you unpack.
"You get what you pay for" is exactly what I took from my stay. The location is great, it's close to West Allis, Muskego, Franklin, Hales Corners, Waukesha, Wind Lake, and there are many gas stations and places to eat within walking distance. It's clean and the service is quick. The value exceeded the cost.
Affordable, clean, & hospitable owner/operator! Would recommend if you need an affordable place to stay!
Nice, clean, quiet, motel. Kind owners and highly recommended.
A great family owned motel. Updated and very clean. No politics, just a very nice and well maintained property. Very fair weekly rates compared to similar properties. Nice people. A positive five stars!
If you arent looking for a fancy place but are looking for beautiful scenery, good people and a home away from home...You will love it here..
Not at all expensive. Nothing fancy, but I was satisfied

Short, honest notes are more useful than long ones. A few sentences about what worked, what surprised you, and who the hotel is best for will go a long way.
