Comfortable and friendly
Pros:

We were in town for a wedding. Customer service was amazing from the front desk, to breakfast service, and the cleaning staff. Beds were comfortable and a/c unit worked great. Hotel was fairly quiet we couldn’t even hear the nearby freeway.

So noisy.
Pros:

We were told we had been given a “nice quiet room”. Our room was right next to highway 99 with trucks barreling along all night. The garbage bins were near our window and the garbage trucks made their rounds at 4:30 am. It was the noisiest room we’ve ever stayed in - and that includes airport hotels! We were not expecting sarcasm from the person that checked us in - it would have been better if he had said nothing about sound - at least we wouldn’t have expected a peaceful night.

Pros:

The room was nice and large and a very comfortable bed. Also, a wonderful shower!! However, I really think your air conditioning system needs to be updated. The air conditioning blasts you when you are in bed and it is very hard to keep the temperature at a comfortable setting. It is either too cold or too warm.

The breakfast was good, except I didn't like the do-it-yourself Keurig coffee. I had problems getting it to work--not something you want first thing in the morning. I much prefer the large coffee dispensers.
