Had an issue with one of the bathrooms and I was kindly switched to another room by the front desk. No other issues besides that and everything else went smoothly. I would go back just need to check the bathroom cleaning quality next time :)

This property has potential, a lot of it, but the Floorplans are really wonky. We stayed in the Junior Suite, which is basically a room thats been cut into two rooms with a strangely designed bathroom in between. The "living room" has a full size sofa bed, a dresser, a 50+ inch FireTV, coffee table, easy chair and desk with an office chair. The bedroom had a very comfortable king bed, two night stands, a 50+ inch dumb tv with Cox, and the kitchenette oddly enough. It feels like the kitchenette belongs in the sitting area/living room and the dresser in the bedroom. The bathroom has been divided into two rooms with a crudely done wall, which isn't even straight. The shower is the same grade level as the floor and is prone to flooding out into the bathroom. As I said, there is a lot of potential here but it's just not that great.

The manager was very nice and helpful in finding a place to eat. I didn't feel safe with the neighbors and people in the area. I would stay here for one night but not safe, with my kids.

I stay here quite frequently and in all honesty as a single man with no family looking for a place that’s quiet , convenient and comfortable. This isn’t a bad option. Right off the freeway and even then you don’t really hear a lot . I wish they added hair dryers in all rooms but that’s about it. I really do enjoy my stays here.

We were put in a room next to one they were apparently renovating. Was woken up by hammers pounding in the wall at 7am. I called the front desk and she assured me that construction doesn’t start until 9am. It finally stopped after 20 minutes. When I was checking out I said they were definitely doing construction in the room next to ours. She said I know I asked them to keep it down. Not even sorry let alone compensation for that kind of wake up. Will not go back.

The motel was old. It was clean, bedding was comfortable. Had all the room essentials, fridge, microwave, iron & ironing board. It wasn't the best place I have stayed but the price & location was great.

When I arrived at the property, I was a bit disappointed, it looked nothing like the pictures, I was expecting a clean nice hotel, it looked almost abandoned. The central and pool area was supposed to be some grass or vegetation but was just loose dirt and some patches of dead grass (if grass is hard to keep make it gravel and desert plants, or plant a couple of shade trees and pavers with a sitting area, it would be easier to keep clean and will be inviting for guests) The pool didn't seem to be properly maintained, the skimmer was not removing dead bugs and leaves from the surface (maybe the filters were not maintained as the skimmers were not seem to be moving water properly) The room was nice and clean, plenty of towels and what seem to be clean sheets and nice bed, wifi working properly, the door security latch was broken (room 146) I missed a coffee maker, I saw there was coffee in the lobby, but that meant that for me to get coffee and ice I had to go out and around the parking lot next to the freeway to the lobby and I was not sure if it will be open in the middle of the night, due to being next to the freeway ramp it was a bit noisy, but that is not to the fault of the hotel other than location. What saved the place was the stuff, they were awesome!! At check in and breakfast which was nice; due to the hotel appearance I was expecting a bit less. The staff was quick to restock and made sure nothing was missing during breakfast. Nice room and decent breakfast.
