I think we all lower our expectations when we book at a budget motel, so all I hoped for was a clean room and a comfortable enough bed. The room was clean, the bed was actually really comfy, and the staff was above and beyond great. You do hear noises from the parking lot and road in front of the motel but thats to be expected when your door opens to the outside. Nothing a white noise machine cant cover. Theres a mountain mikes pizza across the parking lot and 2 gas stations on either side so thats convenient if needed. I was in the area for an event in Mendocino which was only 15 mins away. I would definitely stay there again.
