Not bad. Seemed like they were in the middle of some renovating. Check in and check out was fast. Neighbors needed to learn a bit of respect other then that everything was fine.

The staff were very friendly, plenty of spacious parking, rooms could use some fixing up. Overall it was clean but definitely could be more presentable. Beds weren’t the best at least in our room. If you’re looking for a quick stay and need something affordable okay. Big shopping center, and restaurants fairly close to hotel.

This is a cute Inn in a good location. For the price, its a good deal. The bed was surprisingly comfy. (I usually only stay at Marriott hotels). The rooms are really small, but I only slept there so it wasn't a problem for me. I would stay here again.

This is a very conveniently located and reasonable priced inn/motel. Staff were friendly and polite, room was clean and smelled nice. Plenty of parking. Newly remodeled rooms (a lot of pics featured on Expedia are old). A downside is the traffic noise, as it is located on a busy street. But luckily I had some earplugs so I still slept well. Also, there was no bedside lamp, just two overhead pot lights which were a bit too bright for me. I had no interest in using the pool, but I did notice that it was drained and closed off, just FYI. Overall a good experience and stay.
