Fast friendly check-8n. Keyless lock system great idea. Bathroom small, doorway not for wide load people. Easy location to get to. Checkout super simple.
The room was clean, and the bed was surprisingly comfortable given the price of the room. Cleaning staff was friendly and came by after one day, which wasn’t needed but shows they are cleaning regularly. Amenities are very basic but the microwave and coffee maker worked just fine.
The place was really clean, it felt homey. My kids & I really enjoyed it & overall it was a quiet place got to relax & enjoy the little get away. Will definitely come back if ever in the area again
There is no sound proofing, prepare to hear everything around you. No workers stay over night so you are unable to call the office if there are other people being extremely loud past the 10pm mark.
Ok if you don’t have kids and just want a place to sleep.
The motel is reasonably priced, rooms and amenities are clean and excellent quality. It is very convenient and superb value for
money. The staff is very professional and courteous as well. It is walkable to Alvarado street which has many great places to eat
