Had to move to another room because the air conditioner outlet turned black with smoke. Second room did not have working smoke detector, hanging from the ceiling. Staff was rude. Complained I used too many disposable plastic cups.

We arrived a bit early but were allowed to check-in early. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The hotel is a little older but priced accordingly. The location was very convenient. We would definitely stay here again!

There was no “coffee available in common areas”; the floors, bed and tub were very aged, and the blow dryer didn’t work. Our own fault for not realizing the noise level so close to the freeway entrance.

Property was nice enough. There were some sketchy guys hanging out in the parking lot day and night all hours, not always the same guys for the three days we were there. Nothing that I know of happened just seemed sketchy.

Well when i turned the A/C on it smelled like bad urine, when i took a shower the water does not drain at all till 5 minutes after i turn off the water, so there was like 6inches of water the whole time. The carpet by the door that goes to the patio is all coming undone this place has damage on the cieling in the bathroom, it drastically needs a repaint colors are from the 1970 there.

It's a very convenient location, everything is within 5 mins, including downtown. So many dining options within steps of the hotel.

Friendly service! Close to fast food restaurants and gas stations! Just wish things could be a little more detailed in presentation. Walls could use wiping down and fresh paint, tubs could be replaced as there’s worn down spots all over, very strong smell of cleaning supplies the whole time we stayed. Sheets smelled cleaned and fresh though! This place works for a short overnight stay though! No breakfast offered anymore.

One of the worst places I have ever stayed. Pretty sure they didn't even clean the room. There was an old can of beans in the fridge, crums and garbage all over the floor abs under the bed. The toilet and vanity had pieces broken off. There were stains on the blankets and they said they didn't have any extras so we just threw them on the floor and slept on top of the sheets. Luckily the heater was working. Do not recommend.

I had a very bad experience here. First off it’s a bit run down but I didn’t expect much since it was the cheapest I could find. But it smelled like smoke. There was mold on the bathroom ceiling. There was no latch lock on the door. We put a chair against the door while we slept to feel safe. With all of this I was like well you get what you pay for. I wouldn’t even have written a review for those things. I don’t write reviews. But….they have a sign on the window where you check in that says they will not enter your room to clean it during your stay unless you request them to. But the first day we came back to the room after being out for the day we saw they had indeed entered the room and cleaned it. They didn’t have a sign on the door knob to put out saying you don’t want it cleaned. But I didn’t question that since they literally have a sign saying they won’t. So I called the front desk to ask why this happened and the woman who answered argued with me, literally screamed at me. And then hung up on me. We packed up and left. The man at the front desk refused to give me any check out paperwork or the name of the owner. DO NOT STAY THERE!

The room was clean and smelled strong of cleaner like either Pinesol or Mr Clean. The shower had a hair on the wall and the tub was really worn down and looked gross because of that. Watch your step going in as the threshold of the door was higher than normal. I tripped on it each time I went in. But otherwise, staff was friendly and check in and check out was easy!
