This place was a gem! Nice staff, clean rooms, amazing homemade breakfast! My only suggestion would be to have a brighter light in the bathroom, but that’s all! Was nice to be able to walk to many places from there.

The travel Lodge room was very spacious and clean. There was no facial tossues in the room, but fortunately they were not needed during our 1 night stay. The free breskfast is a bit deciving as only" famous" breakfast tortillias were the offering. Over all a great place for an overnight stay.

Very impersonal- check in is thru a window. Ice machine doesn’t work. Breakfast was supposed to be included, but no breakfast. No staff at checkout. Overall, just a room with a bed.

Old school motel but rooms were redone. The rooms were very clean but the air conditioning did not work well. The TV did not work particularly well. The bed was nice. The room was very quiet. We would have preferred a bit better towels. The ice machine was down. The staff was very nice. Location was easy walking to a number of locations, but you can't walk to unto these hills like advertised due to the trail being down and the road being too dangerous. Lastly, the room was a bit pricey for what it was and there was a pretty high resort fee for some reason, but it's not a resort.
