Location was very convenient. Staff was helpful and kind. Rooms were very clean, comfortable, and safe. I will definitely return to this location. There were no frills like a microwave or a fridge, but with the onsite cafè, we didnt need one.

I love this motel. It is so fun and stylish. It is super clean. The beds and pillows are amazing, and the water pressure in the shower was perfect. I will stay here again, and recommend this place to everyone.

The hotel is very nice in a great location at a great price. The only drawback is they do not serve any hot coffee. There is no coffee pots in the rooms. They have a restaurant that apparently opens at 7am. We have stayed there 3 times. The last 2 times we were there they opened late once and did open at all the next time. This can easily rectified by having a coffee pot in the lounge and letting people make their own coffee and charging them for it. A lot of us need our morning coffee and if this is not fixed I doubt that we will stay there again.
