MOTEL HELL, false advertising they show a pic on expedia and give u a different room. My closet is as big as this room the owner and employer at Nova Motel are rude and liars and are only interested in trying to switch and bait and then try to put u in the right room by upcharging u $20 more for the right room that u should have got in the first place. Also the floors are filthy and they have a space heater in the wall and u burn your arm passing by it, totally elegal. And the site says they have free wifi and they claim they have no wifi and just laugh in your face about it. Total false advertising! They will be answering to the Attorney General and Consumers Protection Bureau soon. I WANT MY MONEY BACK! BEWARE of staying here for real!

I like that it is reminiscent of days gone by before all the big chain hotels started taking over. It was a very warm and relaxed feel to the room. I flew solo so I didn’t use the jacuzzi tub for two but I’m sure that would be a nice add-on for a couple “kids” in love, no matter what your age. 😄

It is a great place to stay at a reasonable price when fishing in the area. They have coolers available for your fish at the end of the day. Definitely nice for a no frills guy trip.

This property looks like it was built in the 50’s and never repaired or remodeled. Door and windows were old and windows didn’t even lock. Chair and carpeting in the room were old and the place smelled musty. We left to find a different hotel. Unfortunately lost out on $148, but I wouldn’t have been able to sleep in that room if we stayed.

The entry door had over a half inch gap leading to outside. Had to put a blanket under the door to keep potential mice and critters out. Ceiling tiles were stained. Bathroom plug not working properly Ants on the carpet Blanket Used to cover the door was probably 10 years old or older Very old rundown would not recommend it to anyone

We stopped for a night at the motel before staying at the state park. Really did love the motel, rooms, bedding, towels were all nice and clean. We didn’t use the pool but it also looked clean and well kept. There was fresh coffee and muffins in the office in the morning. I was able to park my camper in a lot behind the motel. Not far from town and close to a Dairy Queen :)

TV did not work, had to keep askingmanagement to fix it.Desk clerk refused to come help with tv. Floor was sopping wet by entrance and under air conditioner upon our arrival. Soap not replaced after room cleaned. No extra roll of toilet tissue left. Room was not as pictured as shown on website. Room looked like hadnt been updated for 20 years as opposed to updated picture shown on website. Desk clerk was rude and unwilling to help, just kept telling us to call manager but didnt give name or number who to call. This is the worst place and misrepresented place I have ever stayed. I'm going to pursue getting a refund!
