It was a funky and fun room. Happy hour was a nice surprise. But when it says thay we had a private hot tub. There was not one. Disappointed!

Kings Gate Motel
The room was clean, and it was nice having our own little "house". The shower was in the spa bathtub, so there was no curtain. We didn't have a specific parking spot, but there was enough around so that wasn't an issue. The staff was great!
