I came, I stayed, I had a good time and I left.
Pros:

It's a clean place in a good part of town. No problems, no drama.

Cons:

The hallway on the upper level is very liminal. Even if you are close to the top of the stairs in the lobby it's still a long walk. The second night of my stay was 45% more expensive.

Pros:

The location

Cons:

The bed. Mattress was way too thin. Sheets and bedding was definitely not made for that bed either. Stand the tv was on...wayyyy too big for the room. Bathroom was old and needed a good scrubbing, especially the shower head. Light switches in weird places.

Good enough for a 1 night passing thru stay. Still dealing with a stiff neck from that bed.

It was good if your on a budget, if I’d have known the pool was empty there’s no way we would have stayed there.
Pros:

It was very close to the freeway, and quiet at night.

Cons:

I booked this property for one thing, the outdoor pool. They emptied it on September 7th, we arrived on the 8th. The next few days were high 80,s and low 90’s. Don’t they look at the weather forecasts?? 🤬
