Great value and easy access to the freeway and Tony's
Pros:

The room was large enough for us and it was on the first floor and with easy access in and out. We were close to what they call a fitness room and that helped. An easy walk to Tony's restaurant.

Cons:

For me, the bed is too hard and the pillows are too soft. But that is only for me.

Comfortable Stop for a Night - But Bring Earplugs
Pros:

Bed was very comfortable. Room was clean, had enough towels. AC worked. Complimentary breakfast and coffee. A great Mexican restaurant next door. Price was good for what we were looking for, which was just a place to sleep for the night before continuing our travels.

Cons:

Walls and floors were very thin. We heard loud conversations from next door, and people walking around upstairs. We got lucky that the noises stopped by 11 pm and didn't start up again until after 6 a.m. I don't know if everyone will be so lucky, so I suggest bringing good earplugs. Also the lighting was super dim, I could see my phone screen but I wouldn't have been able to read a book.

While the room was nice and the staff great, the noise coming from upstairs was horrific.
Pros:

It was a nice, clean room, bed was comfortable, and room was spacious. The staff were friendly and helpful as well.

Cons:

The noise coming from upstairs all night, like someone was moving furniture and stomping. It may have stopped at 2 am, but it continued a couple of hours later. My husband and I did not get a good night sleep.

Ghastly Place

Nice bed, scanty breakfast
Pros:

Check in was fine and although we didn’t ask for or need an accessible room it was fine and near parking. The bed was comfortable and it was clean and quiet. However there were rags and cleaning things on the hall floor from 3 when we checked in til 8 when we returned from dinner out. And breakfast at 8:30 was pretty sparse: no eggs or bacon, fruit or juice or milk and one yogurt. Basically just toast, a few muffins and waiting in line to make waffles.

Great Value for the Money
Pros:

We came up here for the birth of our granddaughter and this hotel is a ten minute walk from their house. Very convenient and very clean. The beds are on the harder side, but overall, a great value
