10/10 Excellent
"What an interesting and great place to stay! I could tell it used to be a chain motel, so I looked it up and it used to be a Days Inn. But you would never know it by how much money and care they have put into modernizing it. I am an older, middle-aged woman, but it is probably geared towards younger active men. The fun part was the modern turntables in each room, and you could check out old records for free at the front desk. Duran Duran, and Barry Manilow for me! My only issues were the bathroom door, which couldn’t be left open so it got a little steamy after my shower, and the fairly thin walls but what can you do. There is a food truck plaza just to the north, which had the most incredible pizza, highly recommend it!"
