A cute motel right off the highway. Don’t neglect the garden space in the parking lot, they did quite a good job. Almost considered staying again on my way back from the Redwoods up north, but plans took me a different route. Good motel

Nice garden but the room needs a remodel! No where to put your luggage and a broken down desk. Also, loud people around at night - pretty sure there's a homeless encampment next door

We walked in and basically walked out. We canceled our reservation within minutes of arriving. It reeked of cigarettes, the furniture was broken, the bed was like a hammock, there were stains in the carpet and cloth amenities, the bathroom was gross, you could hear the drunk ppl on either side clearly, and the key entry took multiple attempts to work. This place is a total dump. The check in staff was extremely rude. She put up a 5 min sign and was gone for nearly 15 min, and when I went looking for her, met me with rage about how I was grossly out of line for requesting help. Absolutely unsafe to stay here and I'm so glad we didn't.

Shower was dirty and was not cleaned after complaint submitted. Shower head not secured to wall. Grounds litter was ignored by cleaning staff. Cheap sheets and pillows. Otherwise, the place was good and reasonably priced
