Disliked: Staff & service
Rooms are spacious and clean, nice property and great dining next door. However they should not advertise as pet-friendly. I travel for work and could not leave my well-behaved dog there while working. Even then the manager complained of dog hair on the top sheet (for $40 a day pet fee) and refused cleaning or replacement sheets. While traveling I often decline cleaning service and take care of it myself, exchanging sheets and towels weekly and doing the service myself. However the manager never allowed enough conversation before her rush to judgement. All this to say, a great place for the budget but pet owners beware.

Nice quiet spot
Nice spot for an overnight stay. Room was small, but comfortable. In-room coffee maker did not work, but overall nice place. The filtered water dispenser next to the ice machine is a nice touch.

The motel is one block from a shopping mall with Costco, Home Goods, Target & Lucky Supermarket. The room is renovated with recessed lighting, newer mattress, furniture, and Keurig coffee maker. I like the raised bathroom sink bowl and instant hot water when taking a shower. The bedsheet, pillows and towels are clean.

The hotel was clean and modern. Staff at the front desk were nice. Costco is right across the street and restaurants were plentiful in the area. Best of all it was less than a mile from the beach and the bike trail.
