This place is cleaner and nicer than some of the five-star hotels. Plenty of parking, quiet, and cozy. The staff are very kind and helpful, and the property is very well maintained. The nearest attraction is Gaylord Pacific Resort, which is only a mile away. I highly recommend this place to all travelers.

I've always been a fan of small motels and hotels and this was exactly what I was looking for. Easy to get around in a good location. The staff was awesome and having a coffee shop and a restaurant at the hotel was perfect. You gotta go check this out.
