Convenient Location

I think the best service we received was from the parking lot attendant. He greeted us, helped us park and then took our luggage. Check in was fast. The rooms are a little run down. The breakfast buffet is good. We also had dinner at the restaurant and the service was just okay. The only good thing about this hotel is the location if you want to stay in el Centro. Other than that, there’s really nothing that stands out from other nearby hotels.
