7 / 10Good·Apr 2025

I only stayed 1 night, per my original plans; they granted my advance request thru Booking.com for room on 2nd floor. I never used my laptop (only my M. phone on the network), so I didn't bother trying the WiFi, if they had any. Rates are low as advertised; this is brown-bag, no-frills lodging; almost anything can be put up with for a night. Used earplugs to sleep well due to room / Motel next to Hwy. 101; bed firm but comfy, sheets, towels, & shower stall clean; but bring your own fave shampoo, conditioner, lotion, & food/drink to eat in. No mini-fridge, microwave oven, or coffeemaker. Fan in bathroom exhausts damp air with light on. Used AC unit on fan-alone mode only, to circulate & freshen air about room; kept window locked shut & curtains drawn for privacy & noise/light reduction, which worked well for helping sleep.

Clean, modern rooms. Comfortable beds. Free parking. Convenient location.

Pool out of use. Noisy nearby road and thin walls between rooms hearing neighbouring guests moving around.
