Conveniently located to downtown, surprisingly quiet, safe with a gated entry and outdoor access to the rooms vs a noisy hallway. Room was well set up, clean, bed was comfortable, serves a full breakfast. I would stay here again.

The rooms are comfortable and the location was good. The staff were helpful and the daily breakfast had several hot items that are better than other continental breakfast options from other properties. Really liked that the parking lot had a gate.

We slept comfortably

The beds were comfortable and the room was clean. The area around the hotel was a bit rough with a homeless person sleeping in front of the hotel, but I appreciated the gated parking

The staff was friendly but front desk assigned me to two different rooms which hadn’t been cleaned by room service yet. We were finally able to get a room on our third attempt and after all the walking back and forth with our grocery bags and belongings. Manager did not charge us for the upgraded room due to the inconvenience so that was a plus. The surrounding area has some homeless and probably the kind of environment that you definitely not want to walk around especially at night. The room was clean and came equipped with a fridge, microwave and free WiFi with free parking available as well. Overall we weren’t expecting some five star hotel but just clocking off of work tired and just needing a place to shower and put our feet up, this hotel was sufficient enough to do so and reasonably priced.

This motel is well maintained for an older property. The best parts were the friendly staff and the hot, full breakfast! The worst parts were the 'too soft' bed and the part of downtown you would not want to go for a morning walk.
