The front desk people are super nice, but the room was gross and there are alot of shady characters on the property. When i was walking to my room there was a guy smoking fentynol on tin foil when i turned the corner, the only thing good about this hotel is the location, Ive stayed here alot in the past because of close proximity to my family members but im not doing it again, this is what you would expect if the room was like $50 but for more then double, im good.

Filthy, disgusting room, I needed a room just to sleep couple hours before I head to work as I live couple hours away and didn’t want to drive at midnight, the room was absolutely filthy, and at 2:50am a homeless person was knocking on my door, and I couldn’t sleep anyway since the place was just loud and full of homeless people.

Fit for Donald Trump

Check in sucked. Claimed they did not have my reservations even after I showed them the printed out confirmation. Since they have no inside check in, done through a window, I had to wait outside in drizzling rain for the slowest check in imaginable. Slow-Slow-Slow!!! I put my luggage on a desk in the room. Desk fell apart, because it was never properly secured. Brought the front desk clerk back to my room to show him. We had to jerry rig a fix. He did not pass on the information to the next clerk. So I had to take that clerk back to room and show him. I will say the clerks were pleasant enough, but seemed young and inexperienced. Also forget the wifi. Worked on my phone, but to slow to stream anything on iPad.

We loved our week stay at Vista Inn, clean rooms & comfortable bed, clean bathroom. Refrigerator, microwave & a couch. Location was great. Good night manager, very accommodating and friendly. I would suggest a change of towels every other day if not done daily..parking was great. Would definitely return for the holidays.
