Comfortable stay

Our stay was good, the bed was actually comfortable and the room was very clean. Except for the last day when I saw a roach crawling across the bathroom. The lobby had a funny smell and the breakfast wasn't good. Also the pool was not in working order and we were disappointed about that. This was our second choice after our first choice fell short.

Front desk help was very nice and on top of this, as was all the staff. This is a free pet, no hidden costs, hotel; a little worse for wear, but clean, very close to Old Town on Pacific Highway, adequate pool, laundry, ice, shared microwave and snack machines in the laundry room. VERY cramped parking lot, but FREE! If you are trying to find an affordable hotel in a good location that will take any size dog - This is it.

I used to be a local, but moved away a few years ago and came back for a wedding. This location was perfectly central to everywhere I needed to travel. There was always enough parking for me. I appreciated that there was security present, even though I didn’t need anything.

The pool was very clean, me and the kids used both the pool and spa, towels were small but did their job, loved the water pressure in the shower and the towel swab on the bed was lovely. For the price and location you can’t go wrong!
