Categories

Cleanliness
8.3
Several guests reported the hotel as clean and staff keeping things tidy, but a few reported strong odors (mold/dog) and isolated structural issues (caved ceiling).
Service
8.6
Staff are often described as friendly and helpful, with multiple positive mentions; however there are serious negative incidents noted (key-card problems, uncomfortable interactions, perceived racial profiling) that lowered consistency.
Location
8.8
Convenient location for many guests (close to freeway/roadside and local needs); downside is noise from freeway/trucks affecting light sleepers.
Room Quality
7.6
Many guests found rooms comfortable with good pillows/showers, but others reported dated rooms, torn wallpaper, exposed/wired bed frames and occasional maintenance problems.
Amenities
6
Recurring complaints about advertised amenities not working (hot tub, pool heaters, ice maker), limited or non-free breakfast, and lack of compensation for outages.
Value for Money
7
Mixed perceptions: several guests felt the price was too high given amenity and breakfast issues, while others found it acceptable for a quick overnight stop or event stay.
Food and Beverage
7.5
Restaurant/bar receives positive notes in some stays, but breakfast, coffee and occasional liquor-service issues were commonly criticized.
Overall Experience
8.6
Overall a mixed but generally positive experience: many satisfied guests (clean, friendly, comfortable) offset by repeated amenity outages, noise and occasional negative staff interactions.

I feel like there were some racial profiling going on.
Pros:

The location and the cleanliness

Cons:

Being asked for my room number when my family and I returned to the hotel after the viewing of my loved one that passed, then we got up to the room and our keys didn't work to open the doors, and the next night the same thing happened.

Not the best…
Pros:

The hot tub didn’t work, which was the main reason we book this hotel, the bed frames were wired and you couldn’t sit on the end of the bed or it would flip up. The breakfast was the same everyday, and not that great.
