Convenient but not happy with incorrect I fonation
Pros:

Comfort, clean, nice staff

Cons:

False advertisement - showed the room provided microwave and there was not one - most important for my daughter with type one diabetes. Also stated 12 check out in pamplet at time of booking and I had to initial that check out was at 11. Interfered with our plans

A clean place tp stay.
Pros:

Front desk services were efficient and friendly. While we were satisfied with the clean and confortable rooms, the motel is so large that more wall signage is needed to provide a better sense of room direction and the specific location of ice and beverage machines. One should'nt have rely on a printed map. The place is a labyrinth with endless connecting hallways. Also, we were led to expect a generous dining facility within the motel, but the restaurant menu was surprisingly limited and the service, while charming, was unskilled and clearly untrained. In-room microwaves would be helpful. It was obvious that the restaurant was seriously understaffed. We waited over an hour for a drink and another half hour for mediocre food. The new owners need to rethink its operational gameplan to focus on better service.

Cons:

Please see above.

We only needed a room for one night and the location was great. Would probably stay again and choose an upgraded room.
Pros:

Architecture of the building and middle courtyard are beautiful and the staff was very friendly. The location is close to many places we wanted to visit.

Cons:

It is close to the freeway and you can hear traffic. The room we chose was small and the water pressure was low.

Room and Yuri who checked in was awesome, no complaints with that :)
Pros:

Courtyard
Balcony
Room

Cons:

The jacuzzi was literally green, I'm low maintenance but my significant other and I didn't even go in after we saw how it looked (with our bathing suits on). Pool also was gross, there were two pool towels at the bottom of the pool in the water... lol I love best westerns but made it not the best experience.
