Disliked: Amenities
The room was clean. The staff was great. There were no amenities in the room such as lotion. The room had no chairs. The bathroom lacked a towel rack, or shelves to put your toiletries. The room was located above the bar and courtyard. The noise was too loud to sleep. The TV was pay to watch. No live Tv.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort
This a renovated motel from the 50’s…parking has been renovated to a dining area and pool. The small room, antiquated bathroom are indicative of this. The dining is within a few feet of the rooms…poorly soundproofed. A chi-chi group of diners cackled into the 10 o’clock hour, making sleep impossible. Adequate comfort for size, reasonably comfortable despite sagging mattress. Overall poor value for the $33+ charged.

Meh

Very little gf options and no room to adapt. The whole room service concept is weird to start, and the hours are not normal room service hours. Disappointed with that. Paper thin walls (could hear the man in the next room snoring) but very cute hotel and very pretty.
