Parking spaces were limited so we ended up parking on the street. "Continental breakfast" means microwave breakfast sandwiches and other pre-packaged items. The 24 hours coffee was nice. Had to run the AC fan all night to block out noise from the freeway.

The Inn needs some updating. Carpet was in need of good cleaning and/or replacement, window in our room didn’t slide open, slight odor in room, not sure from what and a very noisy AC unit. Provided decent options for take away breakfast and the staff was very friendly.

We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel. We mainly used it to sleep in so we appreciated the easy parking and quick grab and go breakfast in the morning. The staff was lovely and helpful. Would love to come back.

It's decent for the price.

It's not fancy but the room was clean and so was the bathroom. The room needed some tlc but it didn't affect my night. Has a nice fridge and micro in the room and the lobby has a nice coffee/warm drink machine all the time. The breakfast in the am is simple, cereal/bagged pastries/yogurt/boiled egg/juice/coffee, but you should find something. They also have 2 vending machines, one for snacks, the other for drinks, and an ice machine. The outside property/ parking area needs to be cleaned up, as there is a lot of trash. It's close to I-80, but I didn't really hear it, really easy to find the motel since it's close. Shopping/Grocery nearby, walking distance to food, etc. Plus they allow pets for an extra fee! I'll be back, so close to many lakes and things to do!!

Definitely a keeper ~

We had requested early check in, but this was not acknowledged and we had to wait an hour in order for our rooms to be available. The accomodations were standard, but the area was extremely safe with several restaurants within walking distance. The parking and hotel property were very well maintained with excellent lighting. Definitely a keeper on our list!
