Too loud and dated

Located right on the freeway but the windows are not insulated and it was super loud and it kept me up at night. No smoker room smelled like it was smoked in and hair dryer was dirty and sticky. Everything is super outdated and needs at least a "facelift". Staff was very welcoming and friendly.

$100 a night incidentals????

The Room itself was decent enough. The beds were comfortable and clean, the restroom was small and outdated, but overall the room was fine. My issue lies with the many "PARK AT YOUR OWN RISK" signs and the exterior being rather outdated and rundown. The area around the property was nice enough, but you could definitely tell that the shadier things could happen at the location. This is all being said because the booking site had a much nicer presentation. I felt VERY misled by the listing on the booking site. ALSO, there is a $100 incidental authorization that is not listed anywhere when booking.

Walk for coffee

I like stays that have a small coffee pot in the room.If you want an early morning cup of coffee here you have to get dressed after 6am and go to the lobby for it.
