Room was clean, parking is limited. Despite the amount of air freshener placed in the room it failed to completely cover up the smell of smoke and cigarettes.

Stern person at check-in with many harsh rules such as park between lines or be towed. If you are a minute past 11 on checkout day you pay for another day. But the place was clean and a good price.

Old motel that has been nicely upgraded in the bathrooms. Rear unit, on ground floor very quiet except for some construction noise within the motel. The units are very small, hardly space to put your suitcases and beds are soft. Two good restaurants across the street, MX and Thai. We had the one handicapped parking space.
