Categories

Cleanliness
2.5
Multiple reviews report serious cleanliness problems: roaches in rooms, dirty sheets and pillows, hair in bathroom, leftover toiletries, cigarette smell and a bug on the nightstand. Overall clearly negative.
Service
8.5
Many guests praise staff as super nice, housekeeping is called out as doing an excellent job and maintenance responded when issues arose. One report of a rude owner exists, but overall staff service is frequently noted as a positive.
Location
7.5
Several guests note convenience (right off the freeway) and that rooms can be quiet; one mention of a rough driveway. Generally considered convenient and reasonably quiet.
Room Quality
3.5
Rooms described as old/outdated with maintenance failures (shower knob/handle falling off, bathroom door falling off, cigarette burns, stained bedding) and occasional safety/noise concerns from neighbors. Negative overall.
Amenities
4.5
Guests report missing or poor amenities: no cable/reduced channels, Wi‑Fi login not provided at check-in, microwave absent until brought later, AC appearing filthy. Amenities are below expected.
Value for Money
7.5
Multiple mentions of a cheap price and comments like 'you get what you pay for.' For budget travelers some find the price acceptable despite shortcomings.
Food and Beverage
5.9
Standard quality for this hotel tier.
Overall Experience
7.3
Mixed overall: several positives (friendly staff, low price, convenient location) are offset by major cleanliness and room-quality problems. Many guest stays were acceptable for a budget option but disappointing for others.

Pros:

I was a little grossed out by the open, leftover toiletries in the shower, but I was majorly grossed out when a bug scurried across my nightstand. Add the noise from outside, and I didn't feel super safe staying there by myself.

Pros:

This hotel is very old and outdated, the shower water nob fell off and they didn't fix it for 2 days or offer to put us in a different room. Overall if you absolutely have to go there for a room go ahead as a last resort.

Pros:

So, the price was right, and it was right off the freeway. In this case you get what you pay for.
Our bathroom door was falling off the hinge, our smoke detector was beeping every 30 seconds whwn we got there. Maintance took care of it, but it started again first thing in the morning.
Both bed comforters had cigarette burn holes in them.
The maintenance guy was cool, easy going, the rest of the staff i am pretty sure forgot how to smile.

Pros:

The good reviews misrepresent this place. We fall asleep to movies, but there was no cable, only 5 local news/sports channels. The shower is our #1 way to wake up, but the shower water was lukewarm, not hot. The towels were small and scratchy, not soft. The bedcover and pillows were stained and dirty. The wifi login info was not provided upon check-in. We also had no microwave as listed, but they helped and brought one later. You get less than you pay for here. Did not met expectations, disappointing.

Aside from the rough driveway, it's a nice place to stay. The staff are really nice here. You don't hear noise outside your room unless someone's right outside your door or close to it being noisy.
