Overall, the grounds of the hotel were very well kept and nice looking. Roos was pretty clean, but obviously, mopping happens and dirt residue is left on baseboards, making it look dirty.

I would definitely come back as it’s actually a motel that has been nicely updated. The breakfast had 2 things. A pancake machine and 2 choices of cereal. That’s it ! Staff was nice and friendly. When I checked in at 8 on a 100 degree day they didn’t run the air conditioner in any of the rooms it was so hot 3 hours later it was just getting to the high 70s in my room.
