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.

Too many homeless and sketchy people. This is not a family hotel . Our kids were scared from the people we saw there. People are living here or staying long term . There’s security there but it doesn’t make a difference. There’s things going on illegally there at night .

Room was clean but smelled like someone had been smoking in there. Security was only on site until 11pm and he had a friend riding around on the golf cart with him. Unhoused people were either walking through the parking lot and cutting through the broken fences or they were hanging out by the elevators. There were also some sketchy people staying at the hotel. Ladies at the front desk were very nice. Breakfast was minimal compared to other hotels with complimentary breakfast. If you stay on the side of the building close to the highway it is very noisy. Definitely will not stay here again.
