When we arrived at the motel it smelled clean and it proved to be exceptionally so. The host was especially pleasant and helpful and we enjoyed meeting him. We loved the location, so handy to the airport and almost country- like. We would not have any hesitation in recommending this motel to others wanting a moderately priced, lovely motel in a handy location.Show More

Staff was amazingly friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed our stay. Bonus: it's just a short drive from the airport - the main reason why we selected the place initially - but we would stay there again even if that wasn't a must.Show More
