Great spot close to the freeways.

Right off the 15th, there is plenty of parking, even for trucks and large RVs. Rooms are large and include a coffee maker and DirecTV with some premium channels. The swimming pool was right outside our room, and there was a hot tub! Continental breakfast is available for no charge.

It was nice to have joining rooms with my (adult) children. Everything was comfortable and easy. Having just come from Las Vegas, the extra perks, like the coffee maker, fridge, laundry, pool and bottled water was lovely. The pool looked nice - but we weren't there long enough and the temperature was cool, but atleast it was open.
