Acceptable but not more than that.
Pros:

It’s in a great location.

Cons:

It needs to be updated and cleaned up. It’s really old, and the rooms have been updated somewhat, the bathrooms are original. While it was clean-mostly it didn’t look clean because it was so old and run down.

This place is very basic, with small rooms and next to an on-ramp. It’s like a clean motel 6, we slept comfortably.
Pros:

Property is very basic, but clean.

Bad
Pros:

Bed bugs. Charged me $100 security deposit which they did not credit back to me. Breakfast is the cheapest possible carbs (packaged pastries and waffle mix and navel oranges. Literally that’s all. Coffee didn’t even have milk or half and half, just cheap powder variety. Room was a step away from the 78 freeway, making quality sleep impossible

Cons:

See abov
