Nice property and great location. Could walk everywhere. Restaurants close by. Very good price on hotel and parking was only $10 per day. Very afforadable. They refreshed towels each day. Don't see that anymore. Only downfall was the door to the bathroom. Was a slide ranch door but kept coming off track. Very annoying. Water pressure in shower was great. Lots of parking spaces. Would stay here again.

Great location, easy to access, with lots of parking for a small fee. The condition of the property though left a lot to be desired. There were both living and dead bugs throughout the rooms. The front door lock was only loosely hanging on.

Great bed, quiet AC, and very pretty landscaping. I had a good night's sleep. Front desk staff were great. I had one big concern over allergies: my room backed up onto a drainage area, filled with plants and cut timber. I could hear water running below the plants. On the other side of the drainage was a very high cliff with houses near its edge. I am guessing that some of the debris came from above. I like wild areas but this is a hidden mosquito breeding area and a dumping area for the neighborhood.
