“What strikes me is the commitment to comfort and cleanliness; rooms have complete mini kitchens and beds described as cloud-like, making for a surprisingly well-equipped experience. The manager seems dedicated to creating a welcoming environment, going above and beyond to ensure guests feel at home. This is a motel that defies expectations in the best possible way.”
