So this was our first visit to this property. The first room we were given had ants so we got a different room. That room had a sticky floor. So we got another room and it was upgraded to a suite. It had a lot of space and the bed was super comfortable. The staff was super nice and made sure to accommodate us after the other rooms mishaps. The water pressure was good. It was walking distance to Carl's Jr. next door. It was easy to get a Lyft downtown to out concert. It was great for an overnight visit. We didn't get up in time for the free breakfast, maybe next time. For the price paid I feel like it was a great deal.

The room had an awful smell, the bed linen was very dirty and very old and it made me and my wife itch. In order to avoid having to look for another hotel, we had to go to Ross and buy some bed linen to sleep, the doors getting stuck. The property was very neglected.

Good for the most part. Only four compaints. 1) breakfast was underwhelming. There was breakfast sandwhich with a limit of one. Some bagels, bread, cereal, and fruit + coffee and juice. 2) there were ants in the bathroom. 3) sandpaper toilet paper 4) a homeless man came roaming the property and i saw some people hop the fence, so it disnt feel the safest. Overall, it was okay for a one night stay but i wouldn't stay there again

With the property being close by to the highway, it was very loud. The pool was dirty and no one was sent the entire five days we stayed to clean our room. Breakfast was a very small selection and the Wi-Fi would stop working every 15-20 minutes. However, the staff were very friendly with us.
