Close to shopping, situated in quiet residential area
Pros:

The pool area was very clean.
The motel has an exceptional restaurant with excellent staff, very good food and drinks, with good value for your money.

Cons:

The elevator remodeling left the guests to use only one small elevator. It was out of service at least 2 weeks.
