The parking was a bit of a problem because of the number of large vehicles in the lot. Not something they can control now, but it would have been nice if that had been planned for when the motel was built. Otherwise it was a very nice stay. The room was clean and mostly quiet. The shower took a while to warm up, but did get to the lava hot I prefer. I’ll definitely give bonus points for the very soft and new looking towels. Overall we will stay here again.
