"This motel was a waste of money. The room was filthy and unkempt. The TV remote control didn't work. There was a hole in the bathroom door, and the towel bar was falling off the wall. There was mold on the shower curtain. I'd never stay here again, and don't recommend it.2015-08-06"

"The rates were affordable, and I was pleasantly surprised by how nice the room and motel grounds were. The room was clean, updated, and had a microwave and fridge. I appreciated the bedside outlets for my phone and tablet. Quick, easy check-in. My only complaint was the loud noise at all hours of the day and night. I heard housekeepers, leaf blowers, and even a chainsaw for hours at a time, and other guests were noisy late at night. Other than that, my stay was perfect.2020-01-19"
"Not the best neighborhood. An inexpensive hotel. Clean room. The handicap room didn't have a roll-in shower; just had a bathtub with grab bars. Friendly, helpful staff.2015-06-22"

"The motel room was extremely clean, and the bed was comfortable. Great towels. Breakfast was tasty, and the coffee was perfect.2016-06-14"
"Excellent value. The motel had been fully renovated, including my room, and it was a job well done. The continental breakfast was a little underwhelming and didn't have eggs or meat.2016-04-29"
"The motel was supposedly smoke-free, but my room reeked of cigarettes. I could hardly sleep. The front desk clerk said no other rooms were available. Breakfast wasn't ready on time and was meager. The "juice" was flavored water, and there was nothing to eat but cold cereal. Awful place; don't stay here.2016-04-06"
"The motel had been recently remodeled. It was clean and had new furniture and fresh paint. The staff was friendly.2015-09-29"

"The room was clean and well-equipped. Everything was great except breakfast; it had lots of choices, but the food was just OK.2019-12-29"
"The hotel was clean, but the front desk clerks acted like they didn't want to be bothered. I wish I'd spoken up about the kids running up and down the hallways.2019-05-07"
"Located in a busy area by a freeway ramp, with a Target and other stores across the street. The hotel was older, but it was clean and well-kept. The room was fairly nice. There was a good family restaurant and Burger King across the parking lot.2018-07-22"
"Close to restaurants and stores, and the rates were reasonable. The hotel was clean. The room was spacious and fresh and had newer paint and curtains and a comfortable bed and linens; I had a restful sleep. Nice TV. Breakfast was good and had variety. Normally only service dogs are permitted, but because of the wildfire, our dogs were allowed to stay with us. I'd stay here again.2017-12-12"
"Convenient to everything. Great hotel room, great service, and great breakfast. Stay here.2016-11-10"
