A budget motel. Clean room and quiet location. The bar/restaurant on site was closed but there were a few options nearby. At $128 a night you get what you pay for.

We stayed in the 2 bedroom family suite as a family of 5. There was 3 towels, 3 forks, 3 knives and 3 non matching bowls to share. Furniture needs upholstery cleaning. The bathroom sink did not drain very well. But, the sheets were clean and we got fresh towels everyday. We enjoyed watching the bunnies hopping past at night!

My stay was fine. I picked the room as I needed a table to work on. The room description and pics advised I'd get that. I didnt. The Do Not Disturb sign on the door was ignored to drop off towels. I was trying to take a nap at the time, so having someone knock three times to get my attention was frustrating. Property has good parking and is spread out enough to not hear too much noise from other guests. Reception was always in attendance when I went in, and I was able to add another night's stay easily.

For how much you pay per night, you would expect the rooms to be modern and updated, not something from the 1960’s. The stairs leading up to the room, felt like I was going to fall through them and the maintenance of the facilities could be done really nice to make the place look better
