Stayed here a few times and no major complaints. This most recent visit I had gotten to the motel somewhat early and had to wait about 5-10 minutes before I could access my room. The toilet also seemed to be constantly running water but couldn't hear it with the door closed. Also could not connect to the Internet with my PS5 but that has been hit or miss.

Liked you had the option to have pets there. Easy parking and easy access to restaurants nearby shopping close too. Only bad thing was the toilet flushed like it was cligged but wasnt and the drains drained really slow. But overall comfy and enjoyable.

Comfy beds

Absolutely love the main man at the front desk Sion. He is very intelligent and friendly. There beds are amazing. Very comfy and soft sheets. The bathrubs are very slippery and i wish they had some traction strips on them.
