10/10 Exceptional

Great customer service at the front desk
Rex, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

You don't stay here because you're looking for the best room in town. You stay here because it's cheap and near downtown. Perfectly fine for a solo trip, but probably not where I'd bring kids.
R Cody, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The hotel check-in was easy. The staff was nice. The room was clean and updated. The only issue that I had was the bathroom. There was leftover body soap and shampoo still in the shower other than that everything was good..
Robert, 2-night trip

Room is clean and smell ok.

Not great stay
Robert, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

I went inside to check in but nobody was at the front desk. I waited and waited. Phone rang a couple times. Rang the bell a couple times. Yelled out hello. Finally, 7 mins later somebody came to assist me. Next morning I checked and again no is was there to assist me. I ended up leaving my key where it said to. Night window. This was around 8am. I replied back to a than you your visit text saying I left the key as asked so there’s record of me leaving it there. Waited almost 3 hours for confirmation so I ended up calling the property and he said oh I just now texted you back. I’ve been staying here for a few years now and never had I encountered this.
Melchor, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The room was but it was close to the freeway so we could hear the traffic throughout the night. The water temperature for the shower was really low, almost cold at times.
Iqvinder, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

Bed was comfortable but pillows were crap. Construction going on made it a bit distracting. Exterior of the hotel reminded me of an hourly rate motel. Will not be staying there again
Ryan, 2-night trip

Miguel, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Nice stay

The room was great. It was comfortable. It was very clean. Very nice. We forgot to ask about a floor room on the app making the reservation, but when we asked at the front desk, there was not a problem at all. He said absolutely and gave us a bottom floor. He was very nice.
Stephani, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

The walkways and our room floor is VERY uneven. Not sure if foundation is secure. No phone. Wi-Fi didn’t work. AC and lights all unplugged. Our pillows were the size of a couch throw pillow. Not enough towels…room had two bath towels and one washcloth. The seal on the door broke, so light came through the door. Toilet stained black. Floor was dirty and in bad shape.
Door jam

Weekend trip

Had a really awesome time, the room was really clean, the guy who checked me in was really cool. The location for the party we had was close. All in all a really nice place to spend a weekend. And for the price not to bad compared to the others. We’ll be back soon.

6/10 Good

Within minutes my socks were filthy black. Ruined 3 pairs just in walking around my room. Just a filthy room. Water for a shower never got hot just warm. Will not recommend
Jaime, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

I did not enjoy receiving a call at 3am to ask if we were the ones making noise. I was looking forward ti my slumber after a long drive and the random wake up call accusing us of being loud really ruined it for me. Need to get a refund
