"Hey, for the price we paid, we got exactly what we needed: a place to sleep that was comfortable and quiet, a shower that worked better than the worst ones we've used, a clean room, a TV, a microwave, a decent refrigerator and little coffee pot, and it was very close to the attraction we came to see. And BONUS: a delicious and amazing Mexican restaurant just steps away serving wonderful food and drinks!
But if you are into a fancy joint, this wasn't it. I kept reminding myself of little resorts I used to stay at on the Oregon coast or the Missouri Ozarks: dinky and rundown but quaint cabins which had the basics which allowed us to sleep peacefully but weren't there for the fancy luxury. So the desk clerk was efficient but not the warmest. So what. The cleaners weren't ready with our room till 4:30. (We were hungry so ate at the restaurant 30 steps away). The room wasn't the fanciest but it was clean, had all its parts, and was everything we needed. (Except bring your own shampoo and soap: I did NOT like the ones they provided at all and it's my own fault for forgetting to bring mine!)
The motto for our visit this week was GRATITUDE. We had gratitude for the great price we got on Hotels.com for the 2 nights we stayed there. The beds were comfortable, the neighbors were quiet, the room was clean and the Mexican food was AWESOME. Grateful for this little hotel."
