The property grounds are.very clean and well kept. The rooms are remodeled but very small. Our room was sprayed with an air freshner that was way too strong. The office staff recommended airing out the room which we did for more than 4 hours but it was just as strong when we returned. They did offer to change.rooms but let usknow they spray all the.rooms with that air freshner so we did not change rooms. If not for the fragrance issue the facilities are well kept.

Place was comforting. Staff was really helpful and nice, they were able to answer concerns and questions also. The parking was clean and inviting, and the room was clean as well. Having an infant, we appreciated that this place had a microwave and refrigerator. A small thing was that we couldnt find the remote control in the room when it was time to wind down. Other than that, everything was great.

We were put in a handicap room unsure as to why when never was requested. The room smelt dingy and old. The shower was like having a laser beam shot at you with absolutely no hot water. When needing towels replenished we were only given new body towels not her face towels were given. Overall experience was not that great at all.

The property is a good place to stay for one day and night. For the price everything was clean and bed was comfortable. Quiet except for next door car was loud, but okay when the person shut off his car. Nights were quiet. We just stayed for a night concert. TV and internet was good. Lots of channels to watch late in the evening. I give it 4 Stars.

Overall we enjoyed our stay here. The walls were thin so we could hear our neighbors very easily. Also, our mattress was not great, but not the worst we’ve ever had. The toilet flush is powerful beyond words. That’s good for preventing clogs, but not for keeping a low profile. The staff was extremely friendly and welcoming, parking was easy but should probably just be free. The Del Monte mall is directly across the street which has food and shopping, and a farmer’s market on Fridays. The mall also has electric car charging.

Not great

The bathroom door was not frosted enough for full privacy. The mattress needs to be replaced.
