Friendly, helpful staff + they had me at chocolate chip cookie! The King room was clean, roomy with everything I want in a room but don’t often get in my budget: sofa, coffee table, padded bench to put suitcase on, big desk for all my other stuff, big sink area, tiered, for all that stuff + little basket with toiletries you may have forgotten, so no need to go ask at the front desk, tub (!), micro, fridge with freezer, coffee maker, lots of lighting options, and oh yeah, I didn’t use it, but a little electric fireplace in the unit under the TV! Decor is a little dark and classic east coast, but kinda goes with the ivy covered exteriors.
Spa & pool were unheated in December, so perhaps only useable as cold plunges after a sauna session? Lovely little area to hang out in on nice chaises anyway.
The breakfast was the usual cold offerings (cereal, bagels, muffins, juices, toast etc.) with the stellar addition of scrambled eggs, diced potatoes, and bacon or breakfast sausage slices, fresh fruit choices, and pretty good coffee, with milk available. A happy way to start a long drive day!
I felt safe here, could park right by my room, and there were places nearby to eat (ok not great ones but way better than nothing.) I was on ground floor and didn’t hear anything above or next to me, a plus.
I was charmed and pleased by this motel and will stay here again, and recommend.
Also, there were books in English and Spanish in the lobby you could borrow!
