The room was but it was close to the freeway so we could hear the traffic throughout the night. The water temperature for the shower was really low, almost cold at times.

My overnight stay was comfortable. I checked out at 7am on July 20, 2025, the only thing that I didn't like, I wasn't provided with a receipt of my stay, and had to call the gentleman through the night window. He just took my key cards, and I asked is there anything else? He said no. I wasn't told when my $100 deposit was going to be returned to me. Other than that, my stay was good.

The walkways and our room floor is VERY uneven. Not sure if foundation is secure. No phone. Wi-Fi didn’t work. AC and lights all unplugged. Our pillows were the size of a couch throw pillow. Not enough towels…room had two bath towels and one washcloth. The seal on the door broke, so light came through the door. Toilet stained black. Floor was dirty and in bad shape.

Bed was comfortable but pillows were crap. Construction going on made it a bit distracting. Exterior of the hotel reminded me of an hourly rate motel. Will not be staying there again

The elevator safety certificate expired in 2022. I found a long dark hair in the sink and a large alligator hair clip in the shower from a previous guest. There was also a strange piece of molding taped down to the floor meant to bridge the gap between the grey faux wood flooring and the linoleum in the sink area. Signs around the property mention breakfast being served in the morning, but I was told at check in that there is no breakfast. Property neglect at the highest level.

It was listed as a hotel but it was a motel. We had to carry our luggage up two flights of stairs because of construction. There was mould on the wall behind the toilet. The traffic noise was terrible coming through the gaps around the door and through the windows and the walls. The concrete walkway to our room was not level.

Eh, a place to sleep.

Last minute booking- not my first choice by any means. VERY old hotel, zero amenities, horrible towels. Conveniently located near everything we wanted to do but would never stay here again.

We are so unhappy about this place. We had traveled from Texas so we were to exhausted to cause a fuss. But i did let the guy know that the floors were nasty, mind you it was not carpet. I told the guy it needed to be swept and moped. He looks at me as if i sooke another language. So i repeatedly saod the floor needs to be moppes i have 2 small children. He said ok and left. He comes back with a bath mat. Again i said no the floor is dirty! He then says oh, um i dont have a mop and the maids arent here. (Hand on face) he said i can have them mop tomorrow. We shower and proceed to go to a graduation. Both my kids and my feet were dirty from walking on the floor. Im already heated. I go down to tell them again , before we leave. To come back to it still not clean. We couldn't leave caise we had 2 more days paid for. Here is the better not so better ending. The remote and my babies pacie fall behind the bed. My husband's moves the bed to find a ball gage. Now im supper pissed. Yes i went and to look for the manager, to where they were nowhere to befound. So the next morning i went about 6 or 7 am because it was time tp leave. AGAIN stoll no one to be found, i had to call the emergency nunber tjat was left in the night window. He come like 15 mins later. When i told him what we found. He immediately try to offer another night or free points. To which i wasnt given the full as promised. I told him he needed to retrain his ladies to clean better.
