Reasonably priced and complimentary breakfast

The courtyard grounds are well manicured, the room was clean, and the bed was comfy. The complimentary breakfast was convenient to catch something quick before heading out for our adventure. The only surprise we had, was how close this location was to the freeway. Our room was closest to freeway noise which wasn’t our favorite, but we did end up having a great sleep.

Motel 6

Don't be fooled by the pictures like I was. This is not an elegant hotel. This is a dumpy little MOTEL by the side of the noisy freeway. It's old. I picked this property because there was a restaurant on site. The restaurant wasn't even open on the day that I was there. I don't think it's ever open. Maybe it's open on weekends, I don't know. It's a dumpy little place with an inside courtyard but don't be fooled by the pictures.

Check in/out process went smoothly and the hotel was very cute! Only thing I was disappointed in was the hot tub didn’t work and the staff couldn’t help. All in all, it was a good stay!

This hotel is decent overall. Parking is plentiful, there is a beautiful garden area to lounge in hammocks and swinging egg chairs, there is a pool and hot tub, they do serve breakfast, and your room does have 2 doors: 1 opening up to the parking lot side and 1 opening up the central garden area. What I was not so fond of was arriving back to the hotel and being locked out of my room. This was due to having to renew your room keys each day. Small inconvenience but still odd and not advertised. I also did not feel the safest as a solo traveler due to the amount of damage around my room's door. There are also chain, bolt locks inside each door that must be latched to lock the door completely. I also was hearing a few weird noises in the evenings, but that could be wind or something else. Staff was friendly overall and I did not try the breakfast. Overall it was fine, but I will not be returning.
