Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room was pretty clean and the staff was helpful. The motel was busy and well booked so it felt safe. The hotel is located near the highway. I was on the 3rd floor facing the pool. You could still hear the highway noise quite a bit, but after the first night I got used to it. I realize it's mostly psychological, because most people can sleep inside of a moving car on a noisy highway but have trouble sleeping when they hear the slightest noise. I just pretended the highway noise was a good background to lull me to sleep and it worked.
