The property was nice and clean. The break first was decent. Price was right. The train goes very close to the property and think it could keep some people awake as it does shake a bit. But it didn’t bother us as we are use to noice and we were vary tired after long days. The parking can get full at nights, but I always found parking even thought it was not right next to the room.

We always stay at motel village for the closeness to McMahon stadium. It was a clean hotel, and the staff were very friendly. The continental breakfast was just average, if not alightly below, but there wasnt near enough room for people to sit. So we didnt bother staying for breakfast.
