Right on the highway to the Tyrell museum. Busy road even at night. Thin walls make it a noisy sleep. Floors are definitely not level or solid but they keep it very clean.

I paid the pet fee and $100 deposit, didn’t use their linens, pet does not go on furniture, and they took $100 deposit and I said I wanted it back. I took photos. The place was spotless when I left. And they kept my $100. That is theft and the owner swore at me when I called twice politely to work it out and get my deposit back. Terrible and illegal. THEFT!!! I will be calling authorities.

Property clean fresh paint my room. Bed good. Dripping sink but looks like once a plumber can deal it will rectified. Quiet area. Easy access. Seating outside in shade if needed is warmer months. Restaurant Looks to be good to eat at as well. No looking for a place to eat as attached. Recommend for a quick night stay. Friendly staff.
