Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Nice location, very quiet and check in was easy. King room facing pool very nice. Used pool and jacuzzi was very easy and comfortable. Nights had fire pits on and market lights around. The only thing we didn’t like was breakfast options. Donut, oatmeal or a roll similar to a dinner roll . Donuts everyday is too much as we arent oatmeal people . Better off if they had muffins or sweet rolls instead or a breakfast room. Nice that they had coffee in lobby. Would recommend! And has a Ev charging station!

SIdeway Inn is legit!!
Great stay and what a beautiful area! Wish we had more time to visit local eateries which there are many but we are planning on coming back. The room was very updated and clean. The gym was the best gym I have ever seen in any motel professional equipment that if your a workout junkie you will very pleased!! The bed could've been a bit more comfy but otherwise it was a very pleasant stay. We will be back.

Very nice stay!
We enjoyed our stay and really liked the room. It was loud in the walkways and parking lots, and this was disruptive throughout our stay. Overall, the price, location and room was very nice.
