The only disappointment was the motel policy of not providing plates,bowls or cutlery in room,however we were provided with said items when we requested them. I would have thought that they would be in a deluxe king room! No problems with the room

Staff were lovely. Had to take luggage up 2 set of stairs. Very basic room and had everything we needed for the night. All window misted when waking up due to condensation in the room Issues- bathroom has no ventilation or fan. There was mould everywhere. Advertised photo online are deceiving.
