Decent place to stay in the price range. Easy to park and the room was clean. The only downside was that the walls are pretty thin and it did get a kind of loud at night because we could hear the rooms next to us.

The room was clean and fairly quiet. The property was close to route 101 and easy to access. The ac/heater was very noisy. There was no spare blanket, no hair dryer, no toiletries except for soap.
