Okay for a night’s sleep. Bed was comfortable. Not thoroughly clean (dental floss hanging from toilet grab bar) and breakfast was very limited.

This place is in a very busy and noisy road. It did quiet down around 11pm but lots of load cars racing up and down. Also walls are very thin. My sister and cousin were next door and I could hear them talking and coughing. Staff was very nice. When my sister didn’t have an iron in her room they brought her one and an ironing board because apparently they had been stolen from the room. Not the most secure feeling staying there. Rooms were very clean including linens.

The property is just cute! Colorful doll statues and giant pots everywhere. The building is painted in welcoming colors and it's very clean. Our room was on the second floor and it was comfortable. The bed was restful and comfy. The shower has a head on it that will expholate your skin. Very different from what I have at home. However there was lots of dust at the base of the walls( found via a UV light). Our front window and door faced the street (route 66) and we heard loud vehicle noises most of the night. I can't speak weather it was the room or just traffic with loud exhaust notes. It was loud enough to scare me out of sleep however. This was just our experience on this one particular night. That being said there are enough good things here to give the hotel another try. I recommend y'all stay here.

Good choice of motels
Room was clean. It had the largest tv I have ever seen in a hotel if you’re into that sort of thing. My only complaint is the breakfast. Coffee was good.

Positive: Nice staff. Terrific room. Huge frig, table with 2 chairs so we could play cards, table that fit two pieces of luggage, two reading lamps--all well-suited to two guests rather than just one. This is so rare!! Loved having Nutella at breakfast, as well as bananas and yogurt. Negative: Sandblasting shower head. Whatever eye-stinging chemical room cleaner they used was horrid--we aired the room out and ran the AC for 2 hours while we left for dinner and it still stank. Having to share common jars of jam and PB at breakfast was kind of gross. The neighborhood is not the best.
