The front desk staff were very nice and friendly. However, they turned out to be completely inaffective regarding noise complaints.
The room was nice, though the tub was old and stained. The bed comfy and huge. And they had Cartoon Network, so that was good.
The problem was my neighbors. I don't know if those people lived there or what, but on either side of me people were barbecuing right outside their door, and a huge party formed. A huge, loud party. With dogs. That went on until THREE IN THE MORNING.
I called and complained twice, would have been three times but once the front desk didn't answer. I would have kept complaining, but honestly I was a bit paranoid that they'd figure out it was me complaining (since I was the car with CA plates and the only one not at their shindig) and they'd do something to my car. In the end, I stuffed earplugs in my ears.
A motel, especially one that lets people live there, should really be more on the ball about noise. This is a motel right off the highway and a good spot for a lot of travelers to bed down for the night. It's impossible though to get sufficient sleep when the residents party in the parking lot and no one *makes* them stop. Three in the morning. Seriously.
Nice place, really. But if they keep letting people live there who disregard the needs of everyone else so they can drink beer and howl at the moon, or whatever, I will not be back.
