I’m very stayed here in the past multiple times when working in the area because of the access to the water and free parking. This time around I noticed thy renovated all the rooms in a cool retro vibe, smart TVs and more. Previously the rooms were the only dated or negative about the location so this upgrade makes me love this place even more. They also gave us a complimentary bottle of wine on arrival. As a lower cost motel it has more charm value and features than the expensive nearby hotel chains
