"Nice, quiet hotel with friendly employees. The room was clean and looked recently remodeled; there was a sign apologizing, but there was no mess to be seen. Awesome hot breakfast with plenty of variety and seating. We'll definitely stay here again.2019-05-21"
"If you have a pet, this is the place to stay. The room was clean and smelled nice, and I didn't hear any dogs barking. Our room was conveniently on the 1st floor. But the check-in clerk was more interested in answering the phone than helping me, and the other clerk was crabby when we asked for more towels. Nice pool area; the water was warm but salty. Nice, clean whirlpool, but it wasn't warm enough. Great breakfast, and the attendant kept it stocked with fresh food. I recommend this motel for a short stay.2016-01-20"
