Everything was fine

Check in was easy and front desk was nice. My original room was ok, but when I pulled the sheets back the mattress smelled like cat urine. I called the front desk and within 5 minutes he came up and got me another room, he was very helpful! Second room was fine, I was just looking for a place to sleep while driving to California. The thermostat however didn’t work. I was so tired that I just put on a sweater and went to sleep. Hotel wasn’t gross, but wasn’t especially clean.

Adequate grass for dogs to do what we need toilets for.

The renovated room was ok. My bath tub had hair in it, which is gross and housekeeping never came by to collect trash, fix beds, or anything. Housekeeping need to do a better job keeping hallways and common areas clean. Disliked that the pool was not open, if I knew that , would have booked somewhere else. The hotel is going through renovations, hopefully they renovate the outside as it looks run down and they should invest in automatic opening enrty/exit doors and microwaves in the rooms.

Nicely remodeled rooms

The hotel / motel was being remodeled, but it was quiet in the evening. Our room appeared to have been remodeled. The laminate flooring instead of carpeting was appreciated. We paid a bit more for a fridge. Room was clean. Was a fine stay for the price.

I have killed 4 cockroaches so far in my room. If I could afford to pay for a room somewhere else I would go to a different motels. I will shake everything before putting it in my car.

Safe area near biz offices for dog walking

Great staff, quick and easy check in.

The initial room that I was given was so filthy that I had to request to be moved to another room. There was what looked like dried and sticky food on one of the comforters, as well as crumbs on the floor and on the table. I was moved to another room which was not much better. The smell of marijuana smoke was wafting in through the windows and under the doors and throughout the hallways of the facility. Do not recommend!

Pool and price Non working air conditioning. No other rooms with working air. ceiling was coming apart.

There's no sense having a non-smoking room when the door has an inch gap at the bottom and people are smoking in the hallway. Front desk staff seemed put off that I interrupted his dinner. Hallways not clean .

The property is very run down and scary people stay there.

The price was good but for that price amenities are slim.

Quick check in, clean comfortable room, good shower and sleep. What more do you want.

It was nice
