Bathroom smell so musty that I must keep it closed at all time. I’d spend as little time as possible in there. Perhaps main floor rooms are used more Often may not smell like the 2nd floor bathroom. They renovated the motel to be an inn, it’s decent but the carpet was kind of dirty when I walked in. Very strong ordor of odor spray that was def a turn off. 2 Chinese, Vietnamese and pizza across the street was def plus. However I won’t stay there again cause I prefer a nicer name brand hotel. Thus hotel tonight App had this inn on their site, so I went for it. Def not for me

The room was filthy! Mold was ALL over the bathroom and there was what appeared to be blood splattered on the wall in the bathroom. I will be reporting them to the health department. The manager Raul was completely rude and unprofessional!

Convenient location. The hotel is close to the freeway, dining and shopping. My room was fully renovated. The only downside is i could hear the family upstairs LOUD & clear. I only slept about 2.5 hours which was horrible, i had my nursing state license exam the next day. Other than that, everything was great. They will ask for a $100 deposit fee that isnt mentioned on expedia. I traveled on my own, i felt safe enough to proceed to stay the night there.

No coffee provided but comfortable beds
Comfortable bed. Room was comfortable. Shower head too low for folk that are 6ft5in. Probably would not have cost any extra to put them higher when they were building the place. Dirty freezer compartment of the mini fridge in the room. No coffee. Nothing. Not in the room. Not on the premises. Probably the thing that irked me the most. Actually his comment irked me more. "Go down a few blocks to the Starbucks". Very disappointed. A coffee machine in reception could work well with minimal risk to anyone. Otherwise coffee machines in the rooms.

This property was absolutely horrible. I read the reviews before but thought I would still take the chance since it was the only hotel within walking distance from family. Rude front desk and staff, the rooms were disgusting, walls all covered in nasty grime and god knows what other colors, walls warped, water damage to the floor, and mold around the sink and mirror above it. I will say the bedding was nice… I think. Disappointing.

Worst Hotel in Town
Worst hotel I've ever stayed at in my life. The guy at the front desk was extremely rude and unreasonable for many reasons. There was about 7-8 cars in the parking lot with probably 50 spaces available and told me that any guests would need to pay for parking. Avoid at all costs.

You pay for what you get
Room condition was ok. Musty cigarette smell when we first walked in. Had to turn a/c unit to filter air. Bathroom not cleaned properly as hair was still on sink counter. Also no wash cloths were included. Some mold in shower area too. TV did not work until we figured out someone had disconnected the power cord which seemed intentional as it was located well behind the entertainment unit. Questioned cleanliness of room as food from previous guest was still in the refrigerator. Overall for the price and if you can overlook the issues described, decent place to stay if it's just for one or two nights.

My car was in the shop so needed to stay close to my work since I live 42 miles away. For the price, this was a very nice stay. The rooms are decent and functional. Also very spacious. The on-site coffee house was closed. It was very quiet and in a safe area. Overall a very pleasant stay.
