The room did not have trash can in the bathroom. No towels. There was no hand soap, no warm blankets just the sheet on the bed. There was a cigarette butt next to door. I arrived at midnight so I could not call service to provide my with clean towels I left early morning on Friday. I couldn’t take a shower or wash my hands ! Worst service ever !

Clean rooms, and the staff is very nice. BUT you can expect drug addicts to be in front of your room smoking cigarettes at night and in the morning talking nonsense. Also the tv did not work.

OK, but some outside maint issues

Overall OK stay. Hot water took 5 min to get hot, but then was very hot. Ice machine broken, seemed like a long time, so get it fixed. Could be an issue with local homeless raiding the machine. Also pop machine also out of order, so get it fixed.

5/ 5 stars.

The only real complaint I have is that the wifi is a bit shaky here and there, due to the construction and thickness of the walls, which is a great thing. Other than that, the room was quiet, clean, and comfortable. I'd highly recommend this place, especially at the price point. Thanks you to the staff and management.

The property looked line a magnet for lowlifes and drug users, general area looked run down. The "non smoking" room smelled of cigarettes. Other guests were also smoking rigjt out side the rooms in the hallway which just it worse with cigarette smoke. Front desk was terrible had to stand there and wait because the button to call for the attendant wasnt even working over all bad experience

It was over all good, I just needed a place to sleep one night. The property is totally outdated, the few repairs it has are poorly done. During my stay the top lock got stuck and could not open the door. I called the front desk for assistance and 3 people came. One of them had to get in through the window to finally get the lock open. It was a difficult moment.

It reminded me of my deployment time in Iraq. Run down building,rat infested property. Im surprised they are passing inspection. I would much rather save that 💲💲and sleep at the park. Rooms were out dated and filthy..Sheets looked used up,bed looked re-made without changing to cleaner sheets/cover. I paid for a room i didnt feel comfortable staying the night in…Lesson learned,never will stay here ever again…

It’s a decent place for what you pay…. It’s near the 99 north or south…. Gym is close by and taco stands ….if anything the cable can be updated and a tv or two …. Overall it’s good I like that I can bring a dog along especially a pitbull… and I can park my car right near my window so that I can be very watchful of my property

The attended had the office locked during the time of check-in. He just asked for my driver's license and credit card. He then slipped me the key and agreement and had me sign. The room was horrible. The carpet was torn. The shower faucet came off, and you had to Waite around 5 minutes for the water to warm up. The towel rack was rusted, and the bed sheets were stained. Besides all this the window of the bathroom had steal meshing. I wouldn't have paid more than $20 to stay here.
