The location was unbeatable. Plenty of food options. Easy freeway entrance. Quick check in. Plenty of parking. My only complaint is rooms are noisy because of location to main road.

Great location, in downtown. Looks like it was renovated in last 10 years or so, pretty modern room. Helpful staff, and decent breakfast, usual free breakfast, good enough. Air conditioning is loud, could not hear the TV when AC was on. This is probably your best choice if you want to walk to the downtown area. Also, plus, there is a 24hr donut place close to the hotel. They need some quality control on cleaning, the bed cover was dirty, but otherwise everything else was clean. I would stay again, and price was not bad, but not many other good choices in downtown area.
