Checkin was delayed until 7:30pm due to shortstaffing and no employees to clean rooms. When I opened the door, the room was not clean. The linens had been changed but there was food debris on the counter and coffee stains on the table. The outer comforter had stains as well. Very poor cleaning and hygeine. I checked the bed for bugs but did confirm new linens, thankfully. The kitchette was in working order which was good. The shower took 5 whole minutes to retrieve hot water (I almost thought it was cold water only and I'm glad I waited). Very limited parking/ arrival after 7pm probably means no parking available. There is no street parking as an alternative. Lights on motel's outside stay on all night and there are no blackout curtains. AC unit is loud. Probably not a good idea to stay here more than one night as a road stop and only if you really need a discount. Bed was comfy despite the light and noise. Will stay elsewhere when I drive back home.

Friendly staff, good location although just off the strip. Clean with comfortable bed. You could see that they had recently did some updates. Finding it was a little challenging at first and parking was a little challenging depending on where your room was. Good restaurant options within walking distance.

Enjoyed my stay here while passing through for a night. Appreciated that the mattresses had protectors on them. The room was comfortable and the area was quiet. There were several stains on the bedding and carpeting, but over all it was clean. Would recommend staying here.

My bathroom sink was dirty. It took a long time to check in because the clerk was unsure of herself and was new and poorly trained. My keys didn’t work. No ice bucket or do not disturb card. My room smelled strongly of men’s cologne the entire two days. Uggghhh. The maid was nice and checked in frequently. I left her a good tip.

Nice hotel and newly renovated! The place was quiet and room was large. The only cons is that the parking limited and for some reason the deadlock did not work.
