Nice older motel. Very well maintained. Comfy bed. Very friendly helpful staff. Only reason I didn’t give it a perfect score was the old stinky carpet in the room.

Excellent hotel for everyone, but especially if you are traveling with fur-babies, very pet friendly facility with plenty of walk areas and all ground levels rooms, fees for pets are modest and very fair, would stay again for sure.

What a Lovely Place!

Check-in was quick, and the Front Desk pointed out cookies and coffee, which are available in the Lobby 24/7. This is a motel, with doors into the rooms from the outside. Usually I book hotels, as I find motels noisy, but this was very quiet. The room was nicely appointed and comfortable. There is a traditional feel to the room and the entire motel. We found a nearby Thai restaurant (Thai House) for dinner, which we highly recommend. The next morning we walked through the outdoor pool area, which was one of the nicest I have ever seen. It appeared to have a lift for handicapped persons to access the pool; I have never seen that at a hotel before. The included breakfast was very good, and the attendant was on-site throughout, keeping things tidy, refilling food trays and assisting patrons. At checkout I asked about a receipt, and the Front Desk correctly stated that since I had paid through Hotels.com, that is from whom I would get the receipt. I certainly hope we return to Santee at some time in the future, and if so, we will hope to stay here!
