A little maintenance on the room would have been good. Such as fixing curtains that weren't attached. A door on the bathroom to stop the light from outside lights coming in. Wire door on sliding door so you could let fresh air in during the day. The room was very clean, and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The beds were comfortable. This was the first motel I have ever stayed in where there was no soap provided in the bathroom. Towels were in good supply. Overall we had a very pleasant stay.
