Its a nice motel, quiet, clean, pet friendly of course. I used to live over in this area in some apartments behind the small shopping center next to it and I feel its pretty safe. They have cameras installed around the motel though for guests peace of mind. Its got restaurants And Jitter Bean right across the street super convenient.. warm place to stay for a night or 2. Alao the shower handle fell off while turning it one and they were very nice about it and offered a change of room immediately and offered it in the room right next door. Its a welcoming place.

Room needed a lot of repairs. For the price of the room, I expected better. However, the location was excellent as it was across a mini mall and several dining facilities.

It was simple for us. 2 adults and a baby. Of course it’sa motel. So surrounding area is whatever but has some gas stations and fast food. So that helped get is ready for our multi day trip to the redwood parks. It’s a good location depending on what you are doing. Plus eureka is right by. Checked in super late so check in was virtual and card didn’t work last day so had to get a new card. Virtual front desk. But it was easy. It was good got our trip. But now that I no know what to expect with the surrounding area. Might stay somewhere different. But was happy with what we needed for our trip.
