We would stay here again

This hotel looks a typical motel from the outside but has been fully renovated inside. The room was clean and comfortable. The art was colorful and the furnishings were modern. The beds were great and the sink area was right inside the room. The shower and toilet area had its own door. There was a fridge but no coffee maker or cups in the room. It was perfect for an overnight stop on our way to another destination. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast had a lot of options to choose from and a nice space to eat. There’s a great restaurant named the Proper Pig not far away. We would stay here again.

Biggest room ever

Nicely updated large sized room. Liked that the sink area was outside bathroom. Parking was right outside to room. Coffee was wonderful and they even had decaf!!

Smelly

The overwhelming stench of marijuana was present in my building and around the office. I know there’s a dispensary next door, but had I known, so would have stayed elsewhere.

Upgraded rooms in a traditional 2 story motel

This hotel has been entirely renovated, very modern, cool wallpaper, innovative plumbing fixtures, lots of outlets for electronics. But it still has the basic 1960’s Motel architecture on two floor, so half the guests have to walk up the 16 steps to the second floor. Breakfast is continental, basically, cold cereal.

Quite and friendly
Stanley, 1-night trip

Ok two day stay.

Recently updated, AC wast fairly quiet, towels were poor quality and stained. Pillows were too soft and floors needed to be washed. Acceptable for the two nights were stayed.

Nice new renovation

Very well done renovations. Couple of rusty spots on metal furnishing. Linens were very old and thin. Some stains and a hole. Bathroom linens were very old and thread bare as well. If you’re looking for a one night stop it’s perfect.
Ross, 1-night trip

A little pricey, but eh.
