Newly refurbished, clean room, close to downtown. Only thing that I would change is the way the bedding is too short on the bed, and a loose towel hanger in the bath.

The room is beautiful and very very clean. My only complaint is there was almost no parking for regular cars. There are a few compact car spots but my vehicle cannot fit there. That definitely needs to be remedied. There should at least be enough parking spaces for the hotel guests. People who that are visiting for other reasons should be parking on the street.

The property is cute and cozy, I Iove to check out the remodeled motels in alb. The color scheme and theme in general, absolutely loved. The only thing we didn’t enjoy was the super firm bed, felt like we were sleeping on the floor. Overall, great place and we enjoyed our stay.
