I liked that,fpr my needs, this was a great location. I liked easy acess to the freeway going both north and south. I liked the Peets coffee machine with the breakfast, offering such delicious choices. Liked having the parking so close to my room. I didn't like hearing the freeway noises all through the night.

Trip started out great. Woke up to take shower and had no hot water. Ran it for 10 mins and still nothing. Had hot water the night before. When checking out, I told the front desk that I didn’t have hot water and was told that “no one else complained so don’t know why”. Really? Might as well call me a liar. Would not return.

Close, quiet, safe. Our heater was broken and froze in the room even though we notified staff 3 times it was not resolved in 2 days. Usually this place is good but this unsatisfactory.

The biggest issue I see with a lot of privately owned motels is, they are not maintained well. From the gap under the door to the lumpy pillows this Motel was a good example of that. The mattress was decent, however, the pillows were the lumpiest and most uncomfortable pillows I had ever had in a hotel. This is a motel with Apartments behind it in the same complex. Some of the nicer outdoor pictures you see online appear to be more of the apartment complex. One area has a bunch of supplies sitting out in front of what seemed to be the location of one of the nicer online pictures. The individual who checked me in was friendly and efficient. Getting to the room and the parking was easy enough. It was an okay Motel but needs some basic maintenance work.

Okay place for a Night

The place is conveniently located to the venue we were attending. It was quiet and very little outside noise was heard from the room which was nice. The bathroom looked updated and the hot water came very fast (no waiting around for it to warm up). The room could have used a little upgrade. The rug definitely needed to be replaced and a paint job. The bed was comfortable except for the lumpy pillows. Otherwise, it was a decent place for the night. No frills.

Very cozy motel but only problem I saw was too much flies in the bathroom. It wasn't smelly or anything, just flies hanging out by the window to where I grabbed them with toilet paper then flushed them.
