Hidden gem!
Amazing place. Wasn’t sure when I booked, what I should expect. The pictures don’t even do this place justice. The rooms are newly renovated and the pool is to die for. I just wanted a place with a pool so that I could swim. This pool is as good as any 5 star hotel/resort. The check in was amazing and the service was great. The tiki bar next door was fun and convenient too. I haven’t stayed at a motel in a while and very pleasantly surprised that I picked this place. As I walked up and down the street and looked at other motels, they were dumps. This place is well maintained and cares about their guests.

It was ok! The shower was not hot at all. Asked for extra rags they didn’t have any available. The maid didn’t replace them when she cleaned the room. It wasn’t bad. Just needs to work out a few things.
