Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Clean, well-maintained property. We thought it was a newer property, but it's been around for 7-8 years! Plenty of parking, right off freeway, right next to shopping (Walmart). Breakfast was good, potatoes were fresh, not frozen. Bed was soft, offer two pillow types for you to choose from. Room was large, highly recommend staying here.
