There was no sign showing the name of the motel. I only knew it was the correct address by my GPS. The shower had mold and I did not feel safe taking a shower there.

This is a good budget-friendly option. Not a lot of frills. High traffic area, better for car travel than walking, not many dining options nearby.

Very nice place looks can be a little deceiving from the outside but definitely great in the inside. I had a back room. I loved the little patio in the back with the table and chairs as well. Will definitely visit there again.

What I liked most was that the staff were kind and loving.They respected my privacy and allowed me to rehearse uninterrupted.Sometimes I get loud when I rehearse because I am an entertainer.I really dont know if I am going to continue pursuing entertainment.It is fun but all i really want is Love.When people show you love thats the most important thing to me especially from a business.Anyway #Hollywood out

Great location for our scuba diving trip to the Blue Heron Bridge. Only complaints were toilet was acting up and water took several minutes to get hot. Oh and the pillows were hard. Would stay again but would bring our own pillows. Great staff. Very friendly.
