My sister was skeptical about staying there. She wanted to stay in a Brand name hotel. She was pleasant surprised at how clean everything was. We both have back issues and the beds were awesome. Would definitely stay again.

Very small, crowded parking,baby toilet, extremely noisy bed! Thermostat was not working, try to control temperature with noisy unit! Walls must be thin or lack insulation because we could here others talking.

4/10 Fair

The check-in is super convenient. The only problem with a motel with a front desk is that they have to be available via text/phone/internet. Also, the wifi didn’t work
