The motel seems to be going through an upgrade, and I suspect we got the best room. It was clean, however the dishes in the kitchenette still had price tags on them so whether they had been cleaned was suspect. The deadbolt on the door did not match up with the door frame so there was no security lock. The unit had clearly been recently upgraded , not only evident by all the new fixtures and paint, but because the construction debris was right outside the door, including the old toilet! While they did offer a unit in the back and away from the noisy highway, there was a large pen with four dogs who barked off and on during the night. Who keeps dogs outside all night long anymore? The place was clean and reasonably priced, and there isn’t much to choose from in town, so there’s that, but I kinda wished we had stayed in Walla Walla.
