The floors seem creaky and soft in the room and some of the hallways but overall the place has been nicely appointed and can't beat it for the price.

This is a great option if you’re driving through the central Valley. It’s a very newly renovated motel with excellent rooms and beds. Decent breakfast. I’d stay here in a heartbeat if I had to again.

My 92 year old mom and I were driving from Crater Lake,OR to San Diego and needed an overnight stop at a nice place half way. The manager gave us a room near the disabled parking so my mom wouldn't have to walk too far, and came at 10pm and switched out our TV remote when we needed it. Wonderful staff and a lovely room. Great beds! Lots of options for dining too and right off the I-5. We'll stay there again on future drives to NorCal.

Loved the layout of the motel. All the doors open to the outside, but in an enclosed courtyard, which feels extra secure.
