• Convenient location and
  right off freeway.
• Did not like the $50.00 deposit required at check in.

“Gapping cracks in the door jamb allowing wind to blow in furiously. $50.00 deposit required at check in. Door didn't lock good, etc.”

• I liked the location of the hotel.
• Poor quality.

“I found the hotel to be bland and very generic at best. Cleanliness and upkeep were OK. Amenities were lacking.”

• Convenient location, right off highway.
• Room floor was disgusting.

“Overall, it fulfilled its need. Breakfast was decent, good selection. Kind of noisy location if a light sleeper. Room floor was disgusting. After walking around room for 4 minutes without shoes, got in the shower and it looked like I walked through mud.”

• It was clean.
• The bed was so hard my back hurts 5 days later.

“It is "OK". The only staff members we encountered were the front desk and they were minimally friendly. The exit from the hotel has a blind spot on the left and is very dangerous. The room was clean and adequate for a one night stay.”

• The towels were dirty like someone else used them first. The bedding smelled. I am handicapped would not give us lower room were not booked!

“The constant train noise and the location were scary. Not friendly when we checked in at all! Lied about lower room availability. We checked they were not full. Definitely not worth the amount, should be around 20.00 and that's a push.”

• Very noisy outdated HVAC.

“This hotel is really closer to a 1 star experience. It is conveniently located, but shares parking w/ a nearby mobile homes. The facilities are outdated and the rooms are very noisy.”

• Hotel exceeded our expectations. It reminded me of a more upscale hotel.
• Front desk staff was a little short but it was memorial weekend.

“No problems. Our stay was very nice. The room had a 3 burner stove top unit along with a microwave, 3' refrigerator along with a larger under cabinet refrigerator. Lots of room to spread out. Also, we had a real king bed, not a queen, which we liked better. Room was non-smoking & actually did not smell of smoke as some rooms labeled likewise do at times. Felt very safe.”
