Hi team, Thank you I had a nice stay at the motel, however I would have appreciated that in our five nights stay there the room could have been vacuumed when we requested for the clean. Otherwise everybody was very helpful and the staff very honest and reliable🙏 I will definitely be staying at the hotel/ motel again next year. God bless!!

Motel/hotel is old so is showing its' age. Rooms were clean, restaurant breakfast buffet was good, dinner menu was good. The lamb shank meal was huge - enough for two to eat. Relatively close to the airport but far from everything else. Lobby is small and we sat it in for three hours as we had booked a tour through Viator and they did not show up to pick us up, even though it had been confirmed by email. They said hotel was too far from their pick-up place. Viator did not have any issue with keeping our excursion money. There appeared to be ample parking.
