Ended up in the rooms over the bridge in the back, there was no gate to access the street and I had to walk back over the bridge and out through the entrance to get to the street to walk to the convention center which was very inconvenient.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Room wasn’t that clean. What looked like fecal matter by the toilet paper roll, floor felt like grit. The chair was ripped and a mirror was broken. Overall kind of a scummy feeling room. The grounds were clean and landscaped, and security fence was nice. Wouldn’t stay here again though.

It was fine. My room was clean but had a musty smell. My sister and brother in law stayed on the same floor and their room had no smell. That was my only complaint. No big deal. I didn’t even mention it to the staff.

It was quite nice ! I was upstairs and wasn’t warned that there was no elevator! Seriously?! That should be routine. The carpet on the stairway was filthy but my room was nice,heater worked and the bed was comfortable.

Good value. Bed was reasonably comfortable, bathroom was very nice. Flooring was a bit strange, wood, like something you'd see in a mill or granary. TV had limited channels. Front desk staff were very nice and even allowed us to check in early. Located within walking distance of Dignity Health Arena so no need to pay for their parking. Overall, not a fancy place but I would stay here again.

There was plenty of parking, but only one entrance/exit gate. From the back building, you have to walk all the way back to the front of the hotel, then walk around the entire property to get to the restaurants that are located directly behind the hotel, then make the walk back afterwards. A pedestrian gate with key card access would be a great option from the back parking lot.
