GREAT PRICE, GREAT LOCATION, NEEDS UPDATING

THIS MOTEL GETS RAVE REVIEWS ON HOTELS.COM. WE WERE DISAPPOINTED. ALTHOUGH THE PRICE IS RIGHT AND IT IS VERY CONVENIENTLY LOCATED TO THE PLAZA AND WALKABLE TO EVERYTHING, THE CONDITION OF THE HOTEL WAS BELOW AVERAGE. IT IS LOUD (WE WERE RIGHT BY THE STAIRS & COULD ALSO HEAR EVERY WORD OUR NEIGHBORS SAID THROUGH THE RO0M-ADJOINING DOOR), THE BED WAS VERY BROKEN DOWN, AND THE LOCK ON OUR FIRST ROOM DOOR DIDN'T WORK AND WE HAD TO MOVE TO ANOTHER ROOM. THERE IS A VERY GOOD CHINESE RESTAURANT ATTACHED. IT WAS EXCELLENT. IT IS DEFINITELY ONE OF THE MOST AFFORDABLE PLACES TO STAY NEAR THE PLAZA, BUT IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR COMFORT & QUIET THIS IS NOT THE PLACE.

Great value at great location.

Great value at a great location. Couldn't beat it this close to the plaza. Hotel is well taken care of but shows some age. Management went above and beyond to help us out.

The hotel itself was really pretty and at an amazing location. My only complaint is that the room smelled so bad. Think of every type of food leftover with the door closed for days on end. We left with all of our belongings and the car stinking like old takeout. We also had to ask for more towels since we didn’t get our room serviced and when we went to the desk, instead of giving us 4 towels they said “just 2 because they make us write everything down” lol?

Excellent one night stay

My wife and I enjoyed our two night stay. Clean, comfortable room. Loved the location - easy walk to Town Plaza for shopping and dining. Outdoor room access - $10 parking reasonable. Only hiccup was for alarms went off multiple times the morning of departure. Luckily it was 10am and not sooner.

Not for winter stay!

The heating and cooling system in our room was very spotty. The room was fine, but the bathroom never had heat.
