Comfortable and reasonable value
Bed was comfortable and room was basic and decent for the cost. We were told there would be glass glasses/cups but there wasn’t any. Otherwise, the room served its purpose. Also conveniently located.

Very nice for the price
Was the nicest ‘economy’ motel room I’ve ever stayed in. Room was clean, nice fixtures that all worked. Could have a microwave (didn’t need), some of the floor tiles were cracked and was susceptible to noise and vibration from the neighbours, but none of these were a big deal.

This is one of the better motels that I've stayed in - especially when you consider the price point. The room was recently renovated, everything was clean and well kept. Overall better than most of the brand name hotels we normally stay at.

Ethan had the best customer service I've experienced in a long time. Accomodated our early check in, personable but not pushy, and called after check in to make sure everything was adequate. Higher quality rooms and service than many hotels
