Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
My stay at this hotel was not as expected based on past exceptional reviews. This facility is sub-par and not worth the cost we paid for it. The beds were clean (I always check for bed bugs and there was not evidence of this). Surprising that a new-ish facility would have so many repair spots through the facility. The pool is so tiny that we didn't even bother. No hot tub. This hotel is very basic. In regards to our room, there was no view outside the room due to the design of the building, when we looked out our window, we saw building only. That was probably the most disappointing part. It would have been nice if they would have told us that there was an obstructed view. I would not recommend this hotel unless it was your last resort OR you don't care about all the things I mentioned. Great location, friendly staff, poor building design and no amenities.

Room and property were generally clean, but I had 3 complaints that I relayed to the front desk upon check out (Room 230): 1. The bathroom sink was badly clogged 2. The humidity of the room was very high, even with the AC on 3. The room had a strong odor, like someone spilled cologne on the floor

Very friendly staff. Breakfast was supposed to be served till 9:00 am, but there were few selections when we went at 8:30 am. The room we stayed in was accessible and had an odor. Also the AC didn’t seem to be working very well when it was 95 degrees outside. The motel was fully booked, so that probably had a lot to do with the AC not working very well also.

This place is a gem. My family is on a long road trip. We’ve stayed in hotels at several price points. This place is a value for sure!! It is not super fancy. It has modern decor. It is clean and well-maintained. Beds are comfortable. Staff are friendly. It’s quiet.Coffee, tea hot chocolate were available in the evening. Even the laundry facilities were no charge.
