The motel is one block from a shopping mall with Costco, Home Goods, Target & Lucky Supermarket. The room is renovated with recessed lighting, newer mattress, furniture, and Keurig coffee maker. I like the raised bathroom sink bowl and instant hot water when taking a shower. The bedsheet, pillows and towels are clean.

The hotel was clean and modern. Staff at the front desk were nice. Costco is right across the street and restaurants were plentiful in the area. Best of all it was less than a mile from the beach and the bike trail.

while the bed was comfortable, the furnishings are very bare bones and sterile - no character or ambiance.

This was my first time staying there and I was very surprised at the wonderful facility. The parking lot was beautiful and clean easy access to all rooms. My room was very updated clean and the bed was super comfortable. The shower was wonderful and even had a fridge and microwave was a great size. I really enjoyed my stay there.

The young man who checked us in was very excited to talk about his community and to give us information on where to tour and have dinner. Lot's of TV stations, great bed, small room, no place for suitcases.
