Great Owner, Quiet Room
It was a great stay from the start, as the owner Mike had a hockey game on the lobby TV. That's what I like to see! He honored my request for a room away from any possible noise, and he was very informative on where to dine, where to buy gas, and how to get a ticket to an Edmonton Oilers game! The room was very comfortable, and everything worked. The shower had lots of hot water, and the TV showed the Dodgers beat the Yankees. Yay!!! I have never seen so many cereal choices for breakfast, and there were plenty of other options. I recommend this motel highly for convenience, comfort, and service.

The property was close to town, has safe parking and surprisingly quiet. It was easy check-in and the staff were helpful and friendly. The rooms are big and the beds are comfortable. The breakfast was ok. My only complaint is that the towels are old and were no longer white.
