Great stay
My wife initially booked our stay at another motel. The other hotel wreaked of smoke and weed. The bed sheets and pillows had stains like they were not washed. I quickly found Grand Palisades and booked a room. I’m very glad I stayed here. Family friendly and nice and extremely clean. We are getting ready to plan another trip to stay there again in March.
