Visiting family for several days, this motel was about a mile from their house and a couple blocks from freeway access, very convenient. Fridge, microwave and table with chairs. Safe, short walk to local Thai, Pizza, Starbucks, etc. Staff were kind and responsive. Very clean, daily housekeeping visit. On site safety well monitored.
