location is not that bad, its next to the freeway. the room is barely hanging on, overall clean but needs more renovating. No Toiletries, no microwave, no fridge, no breakfast, towels are thin, the tv remote didn't work. parking stalls are narrow, bed cover were just a scratchy blanket and sheets, the a/c worked well. for the price, its not worth it. the staff is friendly although the housekeeping forgot to place extra towels, not sure if front desk forgot to communicate this but i had to go down to get towels. No ants or bugs or dirty room, just low quality motel. overall, id give this place a 5/10.

The area was better than expected. Roaches in the room were a deal breaker. When they were on top of the microwave and i killed a few of them, it was comical. When i found one in the bed, i wasnt laughing anymore. Gross room, thin walls.

This was was the worst hotels for such a good location. AC didn’t work, crackheads knocking on doors at 2am, 1 micro bar of soap, TV had color issues and bed was from 1985. No elevator-all stairs. Just really bad.

Just here to sleep

This motel is nestled between some very nice motels. The pic of the office is not accurate at all. There were CASH ONLY paper signs throughout the tiny check in lobby, Very long lines in the office of customers waiting to get towels, and toilet paper. Our customers room key had to be redone several times during our stay. It seemed more like a residential motel. Many rooms had chairs outside the door and many people hanging out with their door open. I didn’t feel comfortable leaving any valuables in the room. I would not stay here again.
