Well priced and the greeting was super friendly. The room was clean and comfortable, with a huge balcony. A sensor light in the parking area for room 3 would be nice. It was a bit dark until I got to the light switch for the stairs.

Great location. Comfortable beds, good showers. Pleasant friendly owner. While this is a dog friendly motel which is great for those who have dogs I see in information that owners are charged $20 per dog - seems a lot if someone had 2 small dogs..
