Becket Motel

It was a nice little motel and a comfy bed! the only complaint I had was the heating. It was a relatively chilly night and was pretty cold in the room. I tried to follow the instructions to turn the heating dial up but it didn't seem to make a difference. If they could provide extra blankets in the closet for nights like these, that would be appreciated!

Me and my wife stopped here for an overnight stay on the way to our honeymoon destination, looks sketchy from the outside but the moment we got in our room we were immediately taken back by how clean it smelled and looked as we’ll as how cute it was in there. No bugs at all present and we checked very throughly for them, it was freezing upon our arrival but one turn on the heater and it was super toasty super fast in there. The bed was super comfy and perfect just for a 2 person overnight stay. Honesty it was so relaxing I’d probably book a weekend stay in the future. It had everything we needed, working and clean microwave as well as minifridge, shower was clean and has a heater in the bathroom. TV cable was working perfectly fine. 5/5 stars

Bug invested room, smelt like septic was open.. looks like a construction site..

No frills motel. It was the only option under 200 before fees in 25 miles range of tanglewood for the night we stayed so it got the job done. It was clean but run down. Good for a night or two if you’re spending most of your time out doing things. Check in was unusual but surprisingly convenient. There’s plenty of camera outside so it felt safe. The Wi-Fi was surprisingly good which is important for the area. Check you booking Account for check in details before arriving in case you don’t have service

Bathroom sink unable to hold water / toilet flush broken / TV Remote broken.

It was totally fine for our needs. Check in was easy - I got an email saying which room we had and it was unlocked and the key was inside. Things haven’t been updated in awhile, but it was clean and comfy and had what we needed- and the view of the trees and birds out the back was lovely to wake up to.

If you want to have doors you aren't sure are locked, if you want to be stared at for being slightly different then the norm, if you want a shower that has the water pressure of a drippung faucet this is the place for you.

If the vibe you want is the Schitt's Creek motel before the Roses bought it + your dad's apartment when he first moved out, this is the place for you. The good parts: available, safe, and easy to get to. And the owner seems nice. The rest, starting with the less significant: extension cords everywhere. No one had stayed in this place in something like four years, as far as I can tell from the lack of reviews here and the document I'll mention later, so I'd have thought that maybe wiring would be updated. I'd also have expected things like contact paper to be restuck down to the little table, the mold to have been at least covered up if not removed, peeling up vinyl flooring to have been restuck down, and new linens (the photos show the same bedding in the last review in December 2018 as the stuff I found in November 2022). Also no blankets or pillows beyond the dorm-room comforter on the bed; each room has its own baseboard heating, but of course one's body temperature doesn't stay the same throughout the night, so this is not great, IMO. Also the rooms aren't accessible (regular sidewalk curb to get in). And the driveway could be lit better for safety turning in at night. But the worst part by far was that, when I googled the owner's name, which I learned when I arrived because he calls you to instruct you on getting into the room for the first time and getting your key, I found one relevant result: minutes of a town meeting in December 2018: in which the owner was trying to convince the town council to allow him to operate the motel despite the fact that the septic field was less than 50 feet from the water source. So I did not feel safe using water for anything other than flushing the toilet. Oh, another relatively trivial thing was the noise. Throughout the night was the sound of a man urinating in a toilet in a room above me except that there was no such room; I guess it was the baseboard heat? I don't know. It was loud and I had a terrible night's sleep. I ended up cutting my visit short so I wouldn't have to stay another night. I think I paid something like $90 or $100 for the night I stayed (I booked for $110, but I got a discount because I'd booked for two nights, so I don't remember what it ended up being per night; I didn't request a refund for the night I didn't stay). I did take video, but I haven't posted it anywhere yet. I'll add a link here if I ever do.
