If you're looking for a wonderful and clean place to stay, Northland Motel is for you! There's no bells and whistles (pool or gym area), but there is an amazing bowling alley literally attached to the motel! The room was cute, very clean and had everything that we needed for our stay. I could recommend them anymore. We'll definitely be staying again!! Thank you for a wonderful time!

I have been to many motels in the past but this one was one of the best motels that I have stayed in. Very clean and up to date furnishings. It was a great overnight experience. ONE critique that I have is that they did not have an iron or ironing board in our room. Overall great place to stay.

Had a wonderful stay for the price. Very clean, well kept and well appointed room. Water and candy awaited and a red bow on each door for the holiday was a nice touch. Beds were very comfortable which my bad back appreciated. The only downside was the heater fan ran rather loudly. Could have just been the unit in my room. Would love to stay there again if the heater noise wasn't an issue.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Northland Motel. First and foremost, the staff simply could not have been nicer or more accommodating. The room updates were very well done and it made for a very comfortable stay. We actually loved that the motel is connected to the Northland Bowling Alley - they had great food and a nice bar too! The only concern may be that it's exterior entry to your room, but overall the area felt safe to us. We would definitely stay again!

The staff were extremely friendly, knowledgeable, helpful and accommodating!!! Updated, clean and super cute!!! All of our travels over the last couple of years, no one ever gives fresh towels or empties the garbage. How AMAZING to come back at night and this was done. You could feel that the staff takes pride in their motel. We will stay with them again for sure!!!
