Pretty good place. Nice staff. Meagre continental type breakfast. Our room was near a noisy group (2 kids, a dog and loud music, banging doors, arguments) it piped down by 11pm. We were about to call the front desk, then the noise stopped.

Great place and value

Beautiful grounds, well maintained rooms with firm beds, wood floors. Skylights in bathrooms give great natural light, lighting in rooms is a choice of bright or soft/warm ambience. Huge TV, nicely appointed nook with microwave and fridge. The microwave is big enough for full meals. Drive up to rooms, lots of trees and lawns with Adirondack chairs, pool. It's a beautiful place for a budget traveler, we stay here occasionally to unwind and use the pool. Tasteful and laid-back. Very decent Continental breakfast. The assistant manager Griselda is lovely and there is a lot of laughter in the mornings as she and the staff keep the breakfast service running. She is very hands on and does rounds of the property and rooms for quality control . Staff seems happy

The hotel is an old Motel style with most rooms with a front and back door. The back doors are where you park your car in front of, in a dark, kind of creepy parking lot. The shower door in my room opened a strange way, and there’s no way a big man who wears a XXL size shirt can squeeze around the shower door. The WiFi was out the whole weekend I was there. The phone didn’t work, so I couldn’t call the front desk. I don’t recommend this place

The hotel was good. Service was good. Everything was good. The only problem I have is that I booked the room for three nights stayed there two nights had to check out one night early because of some family emergencies and the hotel would not refund that third night most hotel policies you have to stay at least one night and then they’ll refund the rest but not that place.

Reasonably priced and complimentary breakfast

The courtyard grounds are well manicured, the room was clean, and the bed was comfy. The complimentary breakfast was convenient to catch something quick before heading out for our adventure. The only surprise we had, was how close this location was to the freeway. Our room was closest to freeway noise which wasn’t our favorite, but we did end up having a great sleep.
