Get a top floor
If you can get a top floor. The room above mine had the loudest squeaky floor ever so everytime they walked about you got woken up. Like all night in my case.

Loud echoes
Super thin walls, extremely noisy when anyone walked by or started the car. Only stay here if you have ear plugs or are a heavy sleeper. Bed is like concrete, so not very comfy

Great location
Excellent location near bridge. Motel is decent for the price. Pool and hot tub are great. Room was a bit dated and had a slight musty smell but, was comfortable. Can’t beat being so close to the bridge! We were able to see the sunset and sit on benches afterwards to see the bridge at night. Like others stated, parking is a bit tight but really wasn’t a problem.

We enjoyed staying in this quiet location across the street from a park on the lakeside. It was a few blocks of a scenic walk to restaurants and other shops.

The room was spacious; the only issue with cleanliness, was the floor not being swept. The staff was very friendly and accomodating. The area was exceptionally close to all the shops and restaurants. I would definitely stay there again.
