I was pleasantly surprised by this hotel. The room setup with two separate sleeping rooms was excellent, giving us both privacy. The rooms were comfortable and clean. However, the service was a bit of a mixed bag, with good gestures like allowing us to park in handicap spots but also some reluctance with towel service. The location was decent, not in the town center but convenient for exploring the area. The dining options were limited, but there were some nearby eateries to try. Overall, a good stay with a few drawbacks.

While the dining options in the area were lacking anything beyond basic bread-type choices, I found a solution by getting breakfast items from the nearby Safeway. The hotel was also close to another property where breakfast could be arranged.

Our stay at the hotel was great overall. The rooms were clean and spacious, perfect for our family of 4, though there was a bit of morning light and a stain on a chair from another room. The service was friendly and helpful, with quick and courteous staff. The location was central to everything we wanted to see and do, in a nice and quiet area, but not in the town center. The dining experience was poor, with packaged and limited options, but there is a Denny's nearby. The facilities were adequate, with minor issues here and there.
