“This property stands out with its above-average breakfast and the welcoming attitude of its staff. It's also a particularly good choice for pet owners, who appreciate the rooms with direct outside access. Despite some dated aspects of the facilities, the convenient location near Interstate 80 and unique motel atmosphere makes it a practical stopover.”
