Pleasant
Nice budget motel, nothing to rave about and nothing to complain about. You get what you pay for and if all you need is a comfortable bed for a night then this will do.

It’s so 90’s but in the best possible way. Skylights, arched doorways, large bathrooms, and you can park right in front of your room. Hosts are incredibly nice and helpful

We arrived very late, but the host waited for us to give the keys and showed us on the amenities in the room. She even washed our clothes and send them back to our room after drying them for us.
all was great, nothing we don't like
