Detailed Reviews
It is a basic motel. The room was clean, which is the most important to me. It is several miles from downtown, though it is a straight shot. I was glad to have my ear plugs, as it is on a busy street and the rooms have thin walls. Nothing fancy.

The room reeked like burnt popcorn which was left in the microwave there were dirty cups left on counter! There was food in the fridge that was molded. There was a razor left in the shower. And chocolate pieces on the bed that were melted on fabric. I checked into my hotel with no problems as I’m going through a crisis but coming into my room with my 18 month old son I would not expect to have to clean up someone else’s mess before being able to relax. There are also several cigarette burns in the blankets so I just went and got my own. When I went to ask the front desk for help with ice machine he mocked me and made me feel unimportant. I came to stay here in crisis and when my family called front desk they denied my stay

In the middle of a big move and had to vacate old residence when the new one wasn't ready yet. Chose this location for a quick night's sleep and didn't want to pay a lot of money or stay somewhere sketchy.
This is a nice no frills place. Rooms were updated and bed was firm. A/C worked perfectly and shower was strong. This isn't a luxury place but perfect for a safe night's rest. Did encounter the manager, and while it's true he's a bit gruff, he was efficient and it's not like you expect a concierge.

More amenities than I expected for the more than reasonable price. Room was clean and well stocked with basics. Had fridge, microwave and coffee maker in the room. Also had an iron and dish tv (not just three channels). The bed was also really comfortable.

I was very disappointed with this hotel.
There were homeless sleeping outside, the police was there when I arrived. I had to change room several time due to not enough lighting to complete a project for work. The security lock was broken off therefore you could not secure the door properly. The woman at the front desk was polite and helpful big the hotel is not really very nice. I am surprised at the positive comments and wonder how many of the negative comments are actually posted. I don't always stay in 5 star hotels just as long as a place is clean and safe. This hotel was not.

I spent night in this Motel on August 4th 2022. I’m cargo van driver and just have been driving through to the East Cost. The motel was ok like usual old 2 star motel, but A/C hadn’t been produced enough cold and room was smelling cigarettes in spite of the fact that all motels rooms are smoked-free. But it was late and I decided to stay.
After 2 weeks I recognised that deposit didn’t return to my card. I contacted Motel and asked to figure it out. Women on the phone sad that everything is OK and deposit doesn’t go back automatically and I need to call again next morning to ask manager to make a return.
I called back in about a week and had reached manager/owner. He already knew my name and was ready to talk to me. He sad that I left room with tons of trash and food “like you spent there 2 weeks not 1 night” and “there was cigarette smell and butts everywhere” and all the towels were used.
To say that I was disappointed is not to say anything. I’m 100% smoke free person and I hate anybody smoking even under my windows. I spent in room about 9 hours working on laptop and sleeping between two working days (it’s all you need when drive 10 days from cost to cost). I didn’t have anybody with me (i just don’t know any person there) and I left early morning for loads in LA area. I left key in night window because there was nobody in the office and door was locked. Nobody contacted me about my room or deposit. I asked manager why nobody tried to contact me at the moment when the inspected the room - but he sad they don’t usually contact about deposits. I asked for some proofs cuz they trying to charge me $100 and I want to know what is is for but he sad I need to request deposit back at check out after inspection. I don’t know what I can do in situation like that. He is just lies and trying to steal my deposit. Be aware!
