The property was very clean and in a good location . I fell over the suit case stand during the night . I folded it up and moved my case over to the corner so I would not fall over it . Next day we went out sight seeing and when we came back my suit case had been moved back onto the suit case stand. I have never had my things moved around at any hotel I have stayed in before. There is also no sign to leave on the door saying do not disturb.

Motel is clean and the efficiency unit has everything you would need. You have to drive a few blocks to eat but its an island that you need to have a car to get around anyway. Staff were very nice and helpful.
