We've stayed here multiple times. This is our go to every time we come up to visit family. Styled nice... cute & spacious Updated rooms Clean & fresh... no weird smells or stains Comfortable beds & pillows Large flat screen TVs that are app based Pet friendly They offer easy breakfast items in office Office staff is nice, friendly & helpful. Walking distance to some restaurants My only wish is a mirror in the common area, so it's easier to get dressed (makeup, hair, etc) in the morning while another person is in the bathroom.

The staff was very friendly and helpful, the room was spotless and the grab and go breakfast was enough. Even though it is an older motel, it is very clean and secure. Plenty of dining options within walking distance. We were able to get a later checkout time, which was helpful. Highly recommend!
