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.

Easy checkin and checkout. Room was serviced each day. It was quiet. Staff was nice. My only criticism is that the door to my room needed refurbished, because it was scratched up. The drapes needed to be replaced.

Decent price, good location but not the best
I didn’t realize this was a motel. The pictures made it look like each room had a balcony. During our stay when we were in the room in the afternoon a maintenance worker walked by and tried our door knob, which was concerning. The first night we were woken up at 5:30 to the fire alarm going off.

We were told complementary breakfast to find out after grabbing coffee it would be $8 per person. Front office indifferent. Breakfast run by next door restaurant. Just be aware not part of the hotel but it seems like it. A bit pricey per night for a motel but comfy beds and clean.

Great location but facility is just slightly below average No elevator! Bedroom in the suites in the on the second floor has no air containing and the king bed touches the wall on one side, so difficult to get in and out! The bed linen old and the comforter a little smelly Bathroom shower floor slippery floor and in order to turn the water on in the shower, one has to get in, turn on cold cold water before it swings to warm! Price for room very on each day with Friday teaching $420 during the peak season!

Great location
Check in just ok. The clerk mumbled and we couldnt understand her. The gentleman the last day was very kind and helpful. The room was reasonably nice, but due to it being a disability room the clothes rod was low, and the long dresses we brought dragged on the floor. Sheets and blankets nice. Top curtain snap broken leaving a gap. The best thing about this hotel was the proximity to town. Easy walk to main part of town and fabulous restaurants.
