Cynthia, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I had a wonderful 3-night stay here recently! The room was so spotless clean that it might've been the cleanest hotel room I've ever stayed in! The staff were super friendly and helpful. The pool was very clean and refreshing. Having a refrigerator and microwave in the room was a nice perk. Thank you for everything!

Chanaka, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Very happy! Rooms were clean, air conditioners worked great, very safe parking lot and rooms (though no safe available) and service in the room was excellent! The bed cover may have had stains but we put that to the side and everything was super clean and location was close enough to all we wanted. No frills but amazing value!!!

10/10 Excellent

It's an older motel. The furniture is outdated and beat up. It's a decent place enough if you are just sleeping there. The area was decent and it's closeness to the national park is great.
