We stay at motels/hotels often, and this one has some above average qualities. First, they offer daily room service - new towels, etc. In addition, there is an attendant in the breakfast room who gives personalized service - making the waffles for clientele, etc. The front desk staff is friendly and attentive. The rooms are modern and tasteful.

The rooms were good, except the floors probably hadnt been mopped for a while. Our feet were black from walking around barefoot. Breakfast was ok. I wish they had more options. It was eggs and sausage, waffles and cereal.

Just okay…

It was adequate for the two nights of stay. The bed was very nice but the pillows on the small side. The room seemed to be missing the accent chair. The continental breakfast wasn’t self serve. No fruits, bagels or pastries. Not what I expected.

The desk was chipped and scratched. The room was certainly economy, at best. No pool/spa. The bed was hard. Breakfast was a tiny area that wasn't self serve, there was someone dishing up cold eggs and waffles like your mom who didn't want you to take too much. The room coffee was terrible. There was construction in the parking lot. But the air conditioner worked so I got a decent night's sleep.

This property seems run down and old. Unfortunately the pool has been torn out (hopefully they arw just renovating). The bathroom floors were dirty and the remotw felt like i needed to wash my hands aftwr touching it. The staff was friendly though and gave us some snacks and water during our stay.

Its a place to sleep. Area around is not in the best shape. Lots of drug addicts/homeless around the property. Did not get the rooms that i reserved upon arriving. No one answered the phones when i called several times. One call you can hear them pick up, then hang up right away. Shower is made for really short people and you can tell the building needs to be maintained better.

Ok, not for family vacation.

Rooms were relatively clean but one bed cover was dirty. Zone was ok, but seemed more like a motel than the Quality s that I am used to. Hot breakfast was offered but very basic. But did fit the price we paid for the area. My adult brother slipped in the shower because they didn't have a floor antislip mat or any bars for protection. And for the level of quality of the motel, I was shocked that $100 per room was the deposit for the day, seemed very high. Probably was to prevent smoking.

I stayed for 2 nights in mid-April. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Room was clean and tidy. Location is near many food places, including a Farmer Boys and a Starbucks. Bad points are just one driveway into the hotel so you have to do a lot of right turns to get left. Also, second night of stay about 30 people and a dozen choppers held a barbeque party in the parking lot. Revving bikes, loud music, and strong smell of charcoal starter fluid filled the room.
