The Business is out of the city center so a little inconvenient having to drive to sights. Surprised the I5 being so close did not cause any noise problem. But for anyone using the highway, convenient to access. As we like to walk in the evening, not very convenient for strolling. Other than above notes, the staff and conditions were very good for the price we paid. Parking and access to area was great. Although we did not use, there are many eating establishments nearby within walking distance. Would not hesitate to stay again.

Basic inexpensive motel. The staff was very friendly and takes pride in their hotel. The bedroom and bathroom were clean. An elevator is available as is plenty of free parking. Continental breakfast is included but is very basic, and limited. Breakfast is not a highlight.

Would happily return
Hadn't been back for years so was pleased to find the quality hadn't dropped. Clean, comfortable room near to everything I needed plus restaurants close at hand. Micro fridge/freezer was welcome as was the firm yet comfy bed. Only thing that was a negative was that the temperature control was finicky.

Bare bones
I arrived early in the morning on 8/6 so we had to book an additional night directly through the hotel. That’s fine. They checked us in and we got some decent sleep It is a basic room with no frills but it got the job done

Nice place
The jacuzzi tub was awesome, breakfast great, and staff very friendly and helpful. The jacuzzi tub room I booked could have just been a bit cleaner in my opinion, floor made my feet dirty upon arival and shower fan had a lot of dust. Other than that I would stay here again. I think I enjoyed the regular rooms over the jacuzzi ones. Safe place.
