Convenient, pleasant road-trip stay
Pros:

The staff were friendly. The motel is conveniently located off a busy highway. The room had a small seating area, away from the bed, making it easy to read and relax. The bed and pillows were comfortable. The room and public areas were clean and fresh. The room's furnishings included multiple electrical outlets and cable ports, and an ironing set-up. The breakfast was ample and good. This pleasant motel is best for a short, roadtrip stay or business purposes.

Cons:

There was no mini-frig in the room. The motel is both off a busy highway and on another. So noise and facing heavy traffic getting in and out of the parking lot were somewhat negative factors. We were able to get a room in the back, which, beyond the parking spaces, faced a small landscaped area.

Pros:

Rooms were clean. Breakfast was good. Staff was friendly. Close to major highways.

Cons:

Our room was on the ground floor facing the highway, so the traffic noise was constant...I'm just not used to that. I still was able to sleep though.
