Will be back!

Our stay here was amazing! The room was perfect for us. It was clean and comfortable, had so many extras, and was perfectly located near everything we needed. The owners are amazing to deal with (very accessible) and we really appreciated the contactless check in, so simple. No question we will be returning. Thanks again for a wonderful stay. 🙂

Only problem was the lighting. Room very dark. Could not work on the bed (bad back). Short small lights don't cast light. One tall one, the same.

If you value your privacy avoid this place. No physical employees. They monitor your every move through cameras and if something is not to their liking you will receive a phone call telling you to leave the property or further actions will be taken.

I had not stayed here before, but was able to secure a reservation for one night. The outside is a motel, but the room was more like a hotel. Beautiful and spacious and very clean. I was very happy overall and will likely book again sometime.

The updates to the rooms are beautiful and staff very responsive and helpful. The bed was very comfortable and the space used well, with a coffee maker, small fridge, and microwave. The bathroom shower was very accessible and nice but very easy to flood the floor. i would suggest that with the wonderful accessible shower, instead of a curtain which they have, a door would be better. I know sort of expensive but would be much better for the guest and preserve the quality of the place over time.

Surprisingly quaint MOTEL

I have a preconceived notion about Motels and strive not to stay in one. In my haste to secure a place to stay for a midweek funeral service, I missed the fact that this was a motel. The front desk staff was very helpful and even personable. When my key didn't work to allow me entry, he let me in with the master key and then rekeyed my key...all while wearing a boot on his foot to cover an injury. I asked his name twice and still forgot. He was very kind. The room was very nicely appointed, we loved the ceilings and room decor. Very pleasantly surprised. My only unrecognized desire was the water pressure in the shower. I admit that I love the greatest force.

Unfortunately the property is located next to 2 major highways. Not much that you can do other than sealing doors or providing white noise generators. Other than that the facility is fine. DS

We had a great stay! The desk attendant was friendly and checked us in quickly. The room was exceptionally clean and had a pleasing style to the decor. The climate control unit worked perfectly and was quiet. Parking was easy and I think we took twenty steps to our room. Great room at a great price!

We loved our stay for the price! Modern and clean with nice taste in decorating. Bonus was it was walkable distance to restaurants and less than two minutes from where our daughter lives. Would have liked to have felt a bit safer with a deadbolt lock on the door.

Great Stay-Very Happy!

Great stay-Very happy! The outside was a little scary, looked like an old-school motel and belied what the room would be like. They had contact-less check in which worked fine, you call when you get there and they talk you through getting into your room but also offered check-in at the desk if you preferred. The room was obviously very recently re-done and everything was brand new. Tasteful renovation and top of the line everything. Clean and bug-free. A little on the smallish side but comfortable. Very comfortable thick mattress, great pillows and nice linens. Aveda products in the bathroom along with Moen fixtures. New A/C unit. Flat screen TV in the room but only basic cable. Keurig coffee-maker in-room with supplies. Refrigerator with room for your stuff.

Property was very nice, a little small but very clean and charming. I definitely will stay again. Check in was breeze, check out was even easier. And I have to say this because it surprised me a little. The decor in the room was just so tasteful and elegant. Very sweet and calming.
