Found it odd to give your credit card twice , once to a booking agent and than at the motel again. Otherwise things where good

The room was very clean. Beds comfortable. Not easy to fit a play pen in the second bedroom, though. They have a really nice little playground for kids of all ages, including a playhouse and old golf cart.

The place feels friendly and happy. Bed was comfortable and we slept great. The room was kept cool so it was very pleasant in the evening when we arrived and we turned off AC. It was great to have the fridge, for all fruit that we bought when we arrived to the area. The only negatives were weak wifi and no tv channels.
