You get what you pay for. Clean rooms, convenient location right beside freeway and river trail. Other guests are a mixed bag, some look like they live there... not going to say I wasn't worried about my car overnight. But there is security around all night. Staff seemed a bit overwhelmed. Breakfast has powdered eggs but it was enough food to get going. If you can handle "a little rough around the edges", this is for you.

Room was clean but smelled awful. The noise was so loud between people talking and cars revving engines (while the security guard stood and chatted it up with them at 2am) we left in the middle of the night to continue our road trip. Guess you get what you pay for..

DO NOT STAY HERE! Terrible experience, never received anything on my bill about a "hand towel/sheet" charged for some kind of "stains" from the deposit. Only found about it after numerous calls to hotel for details of why my full refund wasn't given. I got a hold of Wyndham on their customer service number where they were able to reach the GM and she finally after two months of trying responded with an email of the charge details. I never ate in room, total bogus charges. NEVER WILL STAY HERE AGAIN!!!

I had to ask for a maintenance person to get the TV to connect to the cable on more than one occasion. It took awhile for the person to arrive, but eventually it was fixed. The property is convenient to I-5 and downtown as well as the airport. The breakfast was better than expected and well-prepared.
