Great Experience
It was a beautiful room freshly remodeled. Very sleek looking with modern art on the walls. The bathroom was beautiful - I would put that mirror in my own house. Staff very friendly. Located in an area with a lot of other motels. It was quiet but there were kids staying there too. I felt safe traveling alone. Enjoyed my stay and would stay there again.

The actual building is quite nice and very modern, however, this corner specifically of town is known for prostitution. Also, the receptionist treated us rather rudely, very bummed out, hoping for a better experience next time.

Todo estuvo muy bien excepto por la Groceria de una de la persona de recepción, en lugar de voltearme los ojos y hace una mala cara hubiera sido más educada si me hubiera dicho que no se Podía. Pero les falto educación y como tratar a sus Huéspedes .
