This was our first no reception check in. One of the reason we picked this motel was because of the year around hot tub. We were disappointed to read the in room motel rules saying it could not be used when there is no attendant at the desk. No attendant/no hot tub.

Very noisy heating AC. No kettle, only a small coffee machine not suitable to brew tea. Mattresses are just OK. No space to open suitcases. A bit disappointing considering it was renovated just a few years ago.
