Good highway access.

Not in the best part of town but has good access to the highway. Margie's Cafe is a short walk and has good diner food with large portions and a nice staff.

Good enough.

It was clean and the staff was responsive. The hotel itself, however, was nothing special and it's location was certainly nothing special.

Don't know the value because the clerk wouldn't say

Clerk at check in could not tell me the rate and could not divide the two rooms book on to two credit cards. Nor could the credit card used/billed to, be confirmed. Clerk at check out could not confirm if the rooms were billed to which card. matress appeared to have a cover that bunched up, making for un uncomfortable night's rest and morning shoulder pain, which I have never had before.

My Review

Close to freeway and quiet. A bit pricey for the quality of the facility. Very cheap furniture. Blankets and sheets hard and heavy. Poor water pressure. Carpet seemed in need of repair. Breakfast was ok. Very nice staff. Conclusion: if it's a last resort, book a room... If you can spend a little more elsewhere, you might want to consider the fact that a few more bucks a night will probably get you a room MUCH nicer.

Staff Needs Work

My wife and I stayed on a Friday and Saturday. Friday night, about 11:00 the desk called us about forwarding a call, they were asking for someone else, not us. We informed the desk clerk that this was a wrong number. 15 to 20 minutes later, the desk clerk called again, same request for the person from the last call. Saturday night, there were several rooms in the vicinity of ours that were part of a common group. Into the night and early morning they were partying loudly, often in the hallway. Staff were informed first ,around midnight, that this was keeping us awake. No effect, we don't know if staff did anything. Called staff again later, informed staff if they couldn't quiet things down, we would call the local police. Finally, the carnival in the hall began to quiet. I would recommend AVOIDING this hotel.
