"We LOVED our stay! We were in one of the rooms right on the main road making the whole town accessible by walking. Having the patio seating right outside our door was nice and we were out there a lot. The staff was friendly and accommodating. We loved having the coffee from the lobby every morning. I will always stay here when visiting Lava!"

"The room was clean and perfect for my needs. The staff and the manager were fantastic! There was a construction project on the street and construction on the property, but the manager worked through several issues that arose but in the end my stay was largely unaffected.

"We only stayed one night. AC is lacking a bit on top floor-king bedroom area. Luckily they had a small personal fan I used throughout the night. The microwave wasn't working which did ruin my option to heat up my dinner that had gone cold. Other than that, it was QUIET, peaceful, CLEAN and we LOVED it!"

"We spent one night at the Plaza Motel, on a road trip from Montana to California. The motel is what we expected: fairly basic, with parking right outside your room door. The room was clean and well-maintained though a bit dated. There was a coffee machine, microwave and refrigerator, which we had to turn on when we got to our room (it was a very small refrigerator so it got cold pretty fast). There are ice and vending machines. It looks like there are picnic tables and a grill on the lawn; we did not use them."
