Better communication a must

There was miss communication between room cleaning and staff. Upon returning one evening I noticed that all my food and liquids in the fridge were gone including my suitcase. Staff must not have told I had extended my stay and they didn’t mention to them about my suitcase.

Pleasant, albeit a little noisy

This is a fine hotel. It's not great, but it's not at all bad - most importantly, my room was clean and fully functional (not always the case in hotels like these). It's on the side of the freeway that doesn't have much to offer, so you're not walking to anything from here. I stayed in a room that was on the freeway side... while the room was nice and had a balcony, there was no way to drown out freeway noise. If you're a light sleeper, try to get a room away from the freeway.
