The room was very clean and the staff affable. Loved how the studio apartment was arranged when we arrived. We were greeted by helpful owner. Location is EASY - walking distance to everything we wanted to see. Nearby frederic's restaurant and bar - great place to chill out.

No.

You can eat at Snug Lounge Bar, which is set 1000 feet away from the property. We loved the fact that we chose Dawson Motel...

Absolutely nothing to say about dislikes.
