Rooms were dirty, in poor condition and bathrooms had mold in shower. Upon arrival, hotel clerk was irritable. Rude and clearly hated his job. Our room was facing the freeway and some noise is expected but it was as though there was zero insulation from the room to the freeway. Horrible experience.
