The cost was fair, nice staff, fridge, coffee maker, parking included, spacious room. What I didn't like; you will hear lots of traffic noise near the freeway off ramp. Inconvenient driving east to the hotel, no left turn in to enter. Have to drive a half mile to make a u turn back to the hotel. For my dining options I had to drive west to the main shopping center a few miles away. Still wasn't a long drive to Sea world to save money on an overnight stay.

I prepaid for 3 nights and left after the first night. It's an old motel located in an area where the few restaurants they have close at 8pm. It seems that many local workman stay at this place. This is not a place I would recommend for a single woman. Furniture and everything in the room is old. I moved over to the Courtyard by Marriott and was much happier. I did not feel safe at the Pleasant Inn.

I paid in advance for 3 nights and checked out after the first night. The place looks better in the pictures. Room is small and old. This neighborhood is dead after 7pm and there is limited dining choices. Everything was closed by 8pm. This was a motel and I would not recommend it for a woman traveling along. There is nothing but businesses in the area. I checked out and went to the Residence Inn by Marriott which was ten times better.
