Convenience location but was surprised to have my unit painted (exterior) during my stay. That is not something you spring on some last min. Otherwise you get what you pay for.

When we arrived there was a couple in front of us trying to get refunded for their room because of roaches. After they left I asked if I could just cancel my room instead of checking in. The man at the front desk tried to tell us the couple was lying about the bugs in the room. We agreed to check-in and inspect the room, but what was so strange was the man said "Are you going to give me $100 if there's no roaches?" We personally didn't see any but only stayed there overnight. SKIP THIS PLACE

The rooms need some TLC with cleaning of furnace, fans and vents. The area is a little hard to exit with traffic coming and going from The freeway.

Not awful, but not great either. Our air unit didn't work- the manager was kind and came to fix it (but it stopped working again shortly after). Room was stuffy and a little musty but overall clean enough.

He was really chill about me arriving to my check in late and when accidentally locking my key in my room. Both occasions were around 1am. The room was really nice, and clean I had a microwave, a fridge and a blow drier, and a Roku tv. I’ll be staying there again.

Not worth the price

Rundown place, terrible parking and parking lot broken concrete and uneven. Old building. Rooms super small. Broken outlets. Super small bathroom and we stayed in a “suite”. No amenities. Only plus was that it was literally next to freeway entrance.
Broken outlet and roaches

Outdated

Rooms definitely need some attention. Wall not repaired and painted where toilet paper dispenser had been moved. Bathroom door had to be lifted to close. Screws in hinges coming out. Lights by the bed were not working. Would be nice to have a place to charge your phone close to the bed.
