The room was very clean, although the floor was a little sandy. The bed was extremely confortable! The mini fridge kept my food and drinks ice cold and the ac kept the room nice and cool. The walls were a little thin and being off a busy thoroughfare, I could hear some traffic noise but it wasn't too bad. The property was well maintained and the staff were very helpful and friendly. Overall, I was pleasantly surprised and satisfied and would definitely stay again.

Renovated and VERY clean!

Great experience at the Anchor Inn Motel. It appears to have been recently updated. We were sent the access code ahead of time so getting into the room was super easy. As soon as I opened the door, I noticed that the room smelled "clean" - not like cleaners or chemicals, but just new and clean. Everything was actually very clean and neat in the room. The bed was also super comfy, which I very rarely say about hotels/motels. Five stars from us and we would definitely stay again!
