Door to the first room, was filled with bugs, mosquitos and spiders. didn't even open the door to check the inside as the bugs would have gone through as well. changed the room, not so much bugs around the entrance, however, inside in the corners there were couple of spiders living, spider bites are bad (from experience). switched again, and the same issue. Very poor people skills of the staff. very strict policy on cancelation if the room is not up to your standards. don't recommend it to anyone to avoid ending up looking for another motel in the area at 1 am! Expedia was helpful trying to remediate the situation, however, ended up paying double without getting any refunds. Not Recommended!

On our route for driving made location convenient. The walls were paper thin, door lock was difficult, beds were small, and furnishings are old.

Accommodating and friendly staff. Clean and surprisingly quiet for being on the highway. Restaurant in the motel has a very pretty view. Only downside is we had to go into Wawa for breakfast as neither restaurant was open before lunch.
