The room was super spacious and nicely updated! I loved how quiet it was—couldn’t hear any other guests, which is rare. Free snacks and great toiletries were a nice touch too. And the lighting? Perfect if you want brightness! The temperature control was great, didn’t have to deal with a stuffy room. Plus, there was a small deck outside for chilling. Overall, really impressed!

Good for families needing comfort
They’ve taken what was once a typical motel and made it comfy. I loved the free bottles of water and snacks in the room, plus the L’Occitane toiletries were a nice touch.
It wasn’t exactly cheap, but for the experience, it was still acceptable.

Nice stay overall, but some bumps
We spent a night here and the location was a total win since it's close to everything. The room was comfy, but it had a strange noise that woke me up a few times. The breakfast spread was solid, though, especially those smoothies! Too bad the staff wasn’t super helpful when I brought up the noise.
