Looks recently refreshed on the exterior, very nice. Interior was re done perhaps a few years ago. They did a great job on the shower! Slept well but the pillows were too thin & only two of them for a king bed.

Decent motel for a couple nights

Hotel is not bad on the interior. Recently remodeled shower, clean towels and nice pool. Some maintenance issues I couldn’t ignore such as carpet peeling up, loose bathroom fixtures and loud AC unit.
