Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staff was very welcoming and the room was clean and well kept. If you stay on the west side of the building it can be a little noisy due to the freeway next to the building. However, later at night the freeway traffic lightens up and there is less noise.

Worst experience ever.

The first room we were given had cockaroches we saw immediately when we walked in. We requested a new room and the bedding was all stained and dirty. When I requested for the bedding to be changed the main in the office told me “I don’t know how to make you happy! I don’t know we can do that!” My answer was that all I wanted was a clean room nothing else. I ended up asking for a refund and leaving immediately. I will never return to this place. Horrible conditions in the rooms and the staff was not pleasant at all.

Cool if your into cat piss and gear grease.

The manager was absolutely rude and unprofessional. Walked into a room reeking of cat urine and grease chunks in the floor. Asked for another room immediately after discovering how bad it was and was interrogated by the same supposed manager as she said she needed to come physically inspect the room. Upon doing so she proceeded to blame my fiancée and myself of creating the issue and denied giving us another room. I said we will accept a full refund or another room and she said she’d refund but to get everything out of the room first. After all that, I learned we had to contact hotels.com to get a refund. Still going through that process but hopeful they will accomadate as we had to pay for another room elsewhere.
