Pretty rudimentary - a bit like a college dorm room. The bed was saggy, the night stand had sticky remnants of something sugary on it, and when I pulled it back to plug in my phone charger, there was trash behind it. No bath towel within reach of the shower so I had to walk over to the little cubby holes above the vanity to grab one (soaking the floor. No USB charging outlets, no clock, no coffee maker, no microwave. But… the staff was friendly and the price was right.

DO NOT STAY HERE. My rooms smelled like cigarettes so badly that my nose became too congested to breathe and I got a migraine. They had no other rooms to switch me into and would’ve give me a discount or refund.

It appeared that my room was clean. The table wobbled on uneven legs, the sink stopped up when I washed my hands and brushed my teeth, and was still stopped up in the morning. The mattress was probably the worst mattress I have ever encountered in any motel/hotel in all my life. I slept exactly in the middle so I wouldn't roll off to the left or the right, and I actually slept OK.

One of the worst motels we have ever stayed. Despite being a non-smoking room, everything smelled like cigarettes. Furnitures in the room were rotten in several places, kind of disgusting and unbearable to watch. The staff was scrolling on Tick-tock(or similar social media) while checking us in. Light sleepers may want to reconsider, as the motel is right next to the freeway and there’s heavy traffic noise.

Overpriced for one-night.

There was no iron or ironing board in the room. No coffee pot. No blow dryer. And not all rooms come with a microwave and small refrigerator. Make sure to read what your reserving. However, the room overwas clean, bed was comfortable but small for 2 queen beds.

My son forgot his kindle in the room we stayed in. When I called the next day after we had checked out they conveniently had “not seen it.” They took my name and number but we didn’t hear back from them. The lack of integrity is disappointing.
