Surprisingly quaint MOTEL
I have a preconceived notion about Motels and strive not to stay in one. In my haste to secure a place to stay for a midweek funeral service, I missed the fact that this was a motel. The front desk staff was very helpful and even personable. When my key didn't work to allow me entry, he let me in with the master key and then rekeyed my key...all while wearing a boot on his foot to cover an injury. I asked his name twice and still forgot. He was very kind. The room was very nicely appointed, we loved the ceilings and room decor. Very pleasantly surprised. My only unrecognized desire was the water pressure in the shower. I admit that I love the greatest force.

Great Stay-Very Happy!
Great stay-Very happy! The outside was a little scary, looked like an old-school motel and belied what the room would be like. They had contact-less check in which worked fine, you call when you get there and they talk you through getting into your room but also offered check-in at the desk if you preferred. The room was obviously very recently re-done and everything was brand new. Tasteful renovation and top of the line everything. Clean and bug-free. A little on the smallish side but comfortable. Very comfortable thick mattress, great pillows and nice linens. Aveda products in the bathroom along with Moen fixtures. New A/C unit. Flat screen TV in the room but only basic cable. Keurig coffee-maker in-room with supplies. Refrigerator with room for your stuff.

Property was very nice, a little small but very clean and charming. I definitely will stay again. Check in was breeze, check out was even easier. And I have to say this because it surprised me a little. The decor in the room was just so tasteful and elegant. Very sweet and calming.

Perfectly adequate for the average traveler just looking for a conveniently located, clean place to stay. This was my second stay and I’ll be back. My only concern: the shower floor is extremely slippery, especially once you use shampoo- I had to put a hand towel down to feel safe.

6/10 Good

Not a terrible place to stay but not really a place that makes sense. My room was clean and small, but cozy. Honestly, room was very basic but good for a one night stay. My check in was great and the communication with staff who sent me instructions was also great. My main issue was with the basic room at this refurbished motel. My toiletries were open, definitely not new, and my mattress was uncomfortable because of lumps. At around 2 am I was awoken by what sounded like garbage trucks for an hour. I realized in the morning that behind my room was a USPS facility that had trucks backing in and going out almost all night. The traffic passing by the front of the hotel was also loud all night and even worse was the mini refrigerator. Again, if I had to do it again, I’d stay at a traditional hotel.

Check-in was contactless and easy. Room looked really nice, and was clean. Bathroom and water pressure were fine. A perfect place to stay without ll the extras (breakfast, pool, etc.) We will be staying here again on our next trip.

By far the best place to stay in the area. The staff is extremely proactive and responsive. We checked in late so they left us very detailed instructions for our arrival. The room was absolutely spotless (probably the cleanest hotel I’ve ever stayed in, and I do a lot of traveling). Do not judge this place by the surrounding area or it’s unassuming exterior, this was truly a 5 star stay.

Loved My Stay at the Carriage House
This little Boutique Motel was nicely remodeled and has all the amenities in the room needed for a weekend stay. I travel quite a bit and will definitely stay here again. I love supporting small business owners and their dreams for success. You won't be disappointed staying at the Carriage House.
