Dissatisfied
Pros:

Probably only the location

Cons:

So much- it’s dirty , smelly- not well kept rooms.
The towels in our room- one of them was so old it was dingy white- there was a bug in the room and you can see the mold rings around the toilet,and the tile floor looks like it had not been mopped at all- it’s just not very appealing for the price of $385

Quiet, nice location and close to restaurants.
Pros:

Close to restaurants and shopping malls. Close to freeway access, the rooms were clean.

Cons:

Buffet breakfast was small and not much options to pick from. One of our rooms was a pet room even though we did not have a pet and it had a pet pee smell in the room. Next door pets were left in rooms without owners in room and had to listen to their dog bark until they got back later that night.

Not worth price when no attention to details
Pros:

Nice location

Cons:

A roasted chicken was left in the fridge from previous guests. When we informed the cleaning lady. She didn’t bother enough to confirm our room number and chicken was still there our entire stay. The blind didn’t go all the way down and room wasn’t dark enough.

Decent stay
Pros:

Breakfast was decent. Biscuit, gravy, sausage, bag eggs, waffles, cereal, muffins, juice, yougurt and apples. The cleaniness was decent. I found hair in the room that didn't belong to me.

Cons:

I could hear other hotel guest in the halls and the parking lot. The guest in the parking lot were loud. They were having a party and kids were playing ball.
