The room was very clean and the staff were supper friendly and helpful. The only caveat was I wish there were more pictures of the “motel” versus hotel descriptions. So interesting to go through the parking lot to room and the concrete floors mean you hear every after midnight folks return to their rooms.

If I'm being honest. The staff was super friendly and the room was clean. However, the pictures don't really reflect the condition of the property. In addition, noise was very loud. You could hear everything through the walls - upstairs, downstairs, outside of your window. It was a little hard to sleep.
