We were placed below a room with a known sewage issue. Although we were eventually moved, we felt that we never should have been put in that room to begin with. The staff should have been more accommodating given the circumstances & the inconvenience.

I've stayed here several times before while working in the area - This time I'm slapped with a parking fee out of nowhere. The person at the desk made a point to say 20 times, "BECAUSE YOU USED A #rd PARTY TO RESERVE YOUR ROOM". They advertised with Expedia, but when you use it, you get punished! The next day, we left continuing north, to SF. I stopped to put gas and eat, at which point I noticed I had left my jacket on top of the bed. I purposely took it out of my luggage to have my jacket handy. I called this hotel, and they said no, absolutely no jacket. Total joke - Never again!

My favorite part about this place was all the beautiful varieties of gorgeous flowers everywhere. The staff was great. The rooms were very clean and the pool was heated. Perfect location, right across the street from the shopping mall with lots of restaurants.

We stayed 1 night. Room needed some maintenance. Shower rod was ready to fall down. Room needed better cleaning esp inside or under the pull out couch. Noises from what seemed like room next door constantly opening and closing the door which seemed to get stuck so they had to slam it. EVERYTIME….and it was like at least a dozen times. Plus a truck backing in at 545 am beeping.

Loved the location and staff - very friendly. I would describe the motel as quaint. We wanted to swim but didn't like that the pool was next to the road and felt too exposed. Lovely landscaping. Would return.
