I was rather amazed at how clean and well kept the room was with a modern feel. Plenty of choices to eat and shop close by and the a/c blew cold and was in good, clean condition. The only drawback was that the toilet had a weak flush. Still, definitely a great deal for what you pay for in comfort and cleanliness.

Nice, comfortable hotel for a one night stay. The room was clean. The plumbing may be old as our bathroom smelled bad. Convenient location.

Nosy freeway corner lot but easy to find

The beds were changed daily and clean, however, promised breakfast was name only. It consisted of basic coffee (cream & sugar were out by 6:30). Sometimes there were no coffee as you can notice there were some people with large thermos filling it. The only little pastries they had were irritatingly wrapped in so many layers of wrappers. Hm...
