I don’t know if it's the motel or Expedia's fault, but I didn't get the promised entry code and room number, so had to call staff when I arrived late.

I can't say enough about how happy we are to have discovered this great place. It is super clean, great location, walkable to the bridge, walkable to restaurants and other attractions, yet away from high traffic and crowds. Very convenient check in process! No hesitation on booking again, and in fact, can't wait for the next chance to do so!
