We were able to book it, just hours before arriving. We were given a ground floor room at the back of the motel, away from noise.

Quiet, clean room

Check in was quick and both the checkin and checkout staff was very helpful. The room was clean and even though we had a room in the front it was quiet. There were lots of electrical plugs, especially by the beds, so no issue in plugging in my husband's breather and our cell phones and tablets. Only thing I missed was, although there was coffee provided, there wasn't any tea bags and I forgot to bring some.
