Very nice room and lobby area. We were there on a holiday weekend, so the breakfast was very skimmpy since so many people, so would have been nice to keep up with the people present. Had to ask for coffee creamer to be stocked. Overall, would defiantly stay here again.

Overall it was nice

The rooms were clean and bed was very comfortable. The lady at the front desk in the afternoon was not friendly at all, nor sympathetic to my situation. And hotels.com nor the hotel informed me that parking was an extra charge. It was a long walk to the main strip. The food could have been better, the potatoes were ice cold, bacon was under cooked and eggs watery. But it was a very busy weekend.

Definitely would recommend your motel

Great motel staff was great all the surroundings were great quiet didn’t quite like the idea of having to pay for parking when you have a big parking lot that was empty and I think most people feel that way might be something you need to look into. Thank you, Mr. John.

Close enough to the vibes

It was so clean and the shampoo and body wash was nice! I never like the hotel body wash 😆. All the front desk folks were so friendly. The breakfast was not very good, no milk, just toast, dry cereal, oatmeal, eggs and sausage, and the waffle maker that you have to compete with everyone's bad kids to get to 😩 they should have just closed it down and hour early. The pool felt like a melted ice burg but the hot tub and patio area in the back was PRIME. You can even listen to the hotel next door get lit and do karaoke 😂 loved that part. The location was just far enough from the main drag to be peaceful but convenient to be able to walk to everything.
