It’s an old motor in that’s been redone. So the rooms are small. I was only there to sleep after long flights home from Vietnam. Main reason I stayed there was my favorite quick Mexi fix was access the street. Taco’s Today. Their Berria’s taco’s are off the chart.

No Breakfast

Room was clean but small with no table to work from. Traffic noise being right on Main Street. They Advertise breakfast. But only breakfast was coffee and a few breakfast different bars. Not what I would call breakfast by any means.

The motel was fine for the amount we paid. Clean although it seemed that we were in a smoking room because I could smell smoke likely from a previous patron. I loved the little dog greeter at the main office!
