The owner or staff manager waited for my husband to step out of room to come to my room knock and ask if we were still occupying room. I guess his cleaning staff told him we took our stuff when we left to enjoy our day and he wanted to rent out. I paid for Friday thru Sunday and he came to see if we were still in room. Inappropriate!!!! Especially waiting for me to be alone!

The hotel is really clean and the cleaning people did a great job of cleaning my room. I had reserved a king, single bed-room and they had given me a key to a room on the first floor that was already occupied. Lobby staff were not very apologetic. I got downgraded to a queen room on the second floor. Overall, I liked it and had a good experience.

We enjoy coming to this location. The staff is always amazing. The only thing missing is a Jacuzzi on-site and/or in some of the suites.

The motel was nice. You are by the main street fareway and hear a lot of traffic and sirens. It was a nice small setup. They show a continental breakfast in their photos, but it was burnt coffee and some granola bars from Costco.
