Definitely a better motel

The neighborhood is a bit sketchy, but this motel was a pleasant surprise. Beautiful inside, very comfy, and a nice little patio outside that is locked. I felt very secure and comfortable.

Room was clean and comfortable. There were obnoxious drivers going down the street playing their music too loudly or gunning their engines, but that’s not the hotel’s fault. It was intermittent, but still annoying. 🙄

Large room with two queen beds. Bathroom was separate from the bedroom. The paintings on the walls and ceiling were a good surprise. Apparently all the rooms are painted differently.

The room’s wall paper behind the headboard and painted ceilings was unique. My daughter enjoyed them, especially at night when you turn on the black light and a painted galaxy appears on the ceiling. The only downsides was that there is very limited tight parking (can and will get blocked in in certain spots), the walls are very thin (so quite noisy), and bed was very stiff with uncomfortable pillows. The center legs to the bed frame were also bent causing the bed to cave in the middle. Otherwise the rooms were very clean( just like photos) and staff was friendly.
