And get this. They just charged my again a week later like i wouldn't notice.

Cadillac Motel has had a major renovation recently and has become the bee's knees. It was pretty much a dive before but no longer is that the case. Even better is it's still priced like one. (A dive) Win, win there! ⁸
This hotel is older. But it's quiet and the shower is hot. I have no complaints.
The room was ok for price . But the shower handles was broke very had to get the temperature right for the kids.
First glace, you think, hell no. But it was literally right across the street from Fanning State park and we were exausted. Surprisingly, not to bad for the cheap price. And they did not care we had load of kids.
