Hidden Gem

This location is always a hidden gem. We have been coming here for the last two years. Moments away from the plaza, there is excellent food and shopping. The hotel is always clean, and the front desk is always helpful. The parking lot is clean and safe. Someone checks cars for parking passes to ensure no one doesn't belong in the lot.

Best decision!

I had originally booked one of the more expensive hotels in downtown. I am so glad that I saw this one and changed our reservation. Great shower! Comfortable Beds! Very clean! We also enjoyed the attached restaurant. We will definitely stay here again!

The Chinese restaurant on the property is excellent. It is convenient for walking to and shopping on the plaza. Very reasonable price. A few minor maintenance issues - the window curtain would not close completely, and barn style bathroom door kept sliding open.
