Barewood Inn and Suites

Barewood Inn and Suites

8/10 Good
"We enjoyed our stay at this motel. We registered online and picked up our key in an envelope taped on the outside of the office door. Room was relatively small and clean as expected, and was found to be relatively insulated from street traffic noise, which was easily heard when sitting outside along the access walkway. Room inside was as pictured in the add. Our two beds were as advertised, and the mattresses were relatively firm and comfortable. The separate bathroom was relatively spacious in view of the bedroom area, especially the shower, a real plus. Shampoo and body wash disperses in the shower were empty; however, shampoo and conditioner were provided separately along with a bar of soap, which I prefer as often these modern dispensers are difficult and wasteful in squeezing out what is actually needed. We called in advance to inquire using a barbecue as appearing available, and this was confirmed."
