There were holes in the bedding and the shower curtain. My key card randomly stopped working midway through my stay; they fixed it. The outlets were in inconvenient locations. And no recycling bin, sadly. And tissues would have been a nice addition. Extremely kind staff though!!

Stayed for 3 nights, reasonable rate for what you get. Microwave and refrigerator in room was awesome. King bed was comfy, lots of seating and tables. I think the only cons are its a little rough around the edges, outdated exterior, but at least no rif-raf in the parking lot. The room wasnt "spotless" but clean enough for a general stay. Shower is VERY outdated, definitely early 80's vibes. All in all, it was a pleasant stay and probably would stay again if i was in the area.

The location is great for travelers who appreciate convenience. Local gas stations, well known restaurants are walking distance. Staff is friendly and polite. The only complaint is the noise from outside and those staying next to you. Walls are so thin, you can hear everything. I would recommend getting a upstairs room nearest the end so you can negate the outside surrounding

So. If you're looking for the most basic of motels, literally just a bed for the night and maybe a television and a place to charge your phone, this is it. The room was small but clean, and very quiet! I didn't hear a peep from anyone in any other rooms, and nothing from the freeway (because it is literally right next to 101). The bed was actually fairly comfortable. Surprisingly the room had both a fridge (that actually kept things cold) and a microwave. Our room was the accessible room with the roll-in shower, and the shower had zero water pressure, so that was a definite drawback. The sink had great water pressure so I was hoping the shower would be the same, but alas, it was not to be.There was also no light in the shower, but enough light bled through from the rest of the bathroom that it wasn't too much of an issue.Denny's is right next door if you need food, and the Shell down the road is open 24 hours if you just need a soda or a candy bar in the middle of the night, Staff is friendly (kind of awkward, but all nice guys) and happy to provide extra towels or pillows if you need them,
