Pros:

Buena ubicación

Cons:

Tengo muchos años llegando a este hotel, sin embargo, ha decaido bastante en las ultimas visitas
Desde que llegamos estaba tirado en la alfombra un cubrebocas, nunca lo recogieron las de personal de limpieza. El desayuno antes servian variedad, ha bajado poco las opciones

Pros:

Das Hotel war gut gelegen in der Nähe der Interstate 5, ich benötigte nur eine Zwischenunterkunft die schnell erreichbar sein sollte. Es handelt sich um einen Typbau etwas älterer Art, zweietagige Leichtbauten, was man beim Rollen der Reinigungswagen merkt. Es war sauber, alles funktionell, die Räume auf Grund der früheren Raumschnitte aber recht klein. Dafür waren Tankstelle, Jack in the Box und ähnliche Gegebenheiten fussläufig in der Nähe.

Cons:

Für den günstigen Preis war alles in Ordnung. Wer sehr hellhörig nicht schlafen kann, sollte die Nähe zur Interstate an den Wochentagen beachten.

Clean place. Thank you.
Pros:

When I'm driving I prefer motels because I can park right outside the room. I was parked steps away from my room. I chose early check-in which was nice and only $35. This place is clean inside and on the outside of the property. The bathroom was super clean, every corner I saw was clean. The room was larger than expected. A window for ventilation in the bathroom. I kept the bathroom door closed so the bathroom could have ventilation while I enjoyed the air conditioning in the rest of the room. The beds were comfortable, there was a refrigerator, TV was good, I was able to block out outdoor light in the daytime and get the room pretty dark which was nice. Breakfast was good. Thank you.

Cons:

I have no complaints, the place as good. It was quiet, clean, and comfortable.
