“This is a basic motel that delivers on the essentials: rooms are clean, beds are comfortable, and you get a fridge and microwave; the staff is friendly, and the water pressure is great. I think it represents a solid option if the better-known hotels are booked or charging exorbitant rates, offering good value in a busy market.”
