I was very disappointed

There was no breakfast nook like it was shown in the pictures. The office area was inside a gas station convenient store. It was a breakfast bag on the go. The reason I picked it was because of the picture of the little breakfast area. I feel like that is false advertising. They should show recent pictures of what it looks like. The picture I was not impressed especially on how much I paid for this room.
This is what they consider a breakfast. You don't even get to pick what you want.

Property was really nice overall. Can tell recently painted and rooms updated. Biggest issue was when asking for fresh towels, the lady at the front seemed like it was an inconvenience. To have a gas station in the parking lot, was very quiet and no issues.

Human hair all over the mattress sheets and pillows. Killed 2 different spiders, 1 on the floor, 1 crawling near the nightstand. Only stayed there for 1 night but would not stay again due to cleanliness.

The property was ok for what we needed out of this trip. There are no pictures of the front of the property because there is a busy gas station right in front of it. It makes a lot more sense once you get there. I had a really hard time finding the office as well and ended up asking at the gas station front desk. Check in, once I found the desk was fine. The traffic was a bit noisy as it is right on a main road but we were able to sleep just fine. It died down later in the evening. The outdoor flood lights both seemed to be like strobe lights and not properly working and there was obvious repairs being done around the property so it was messy/dirty. Breakfast to go was perfect for what we needed! I don’t know that I’d stay here again (maybe if it was even less expensive) but everything was just ok.

We only had a one night stay while on the road but found this place to be excellent. Rooms were large and comfy. The young man at check in was very friendly and helpful. There were a lot of places nearby including a Trader Joe’s and the price was extremely reasonable for the area. Overall we had a great stay and would definitely book this place again.

Its okay, it was clean and had basic amenities. You are connected to a gas station the hotel sits a little back but you can see pumps. We thought it was going to be noisy but we sleep good keep in mind we were up for 21 hrs. Only complaint, i went out to pick up some breakfast and there was nothing there. Man who checked us in had a accent, i thought i heard breakfast bags would be in area where we checked in. Nope nada.

I can see they are trying to update it but it’s behind a gas station, there was hair on our pillows, it was hard to find the lobby-no signage, it’s directly next to a gas station, and it doesn’t feel safe

The price of the room was reasonable and the room with King Bed was spacious and clean. I was disappointed with breakfast. I was expecting a full breakfast with various food options…Instead a “go bag” of 2 fruits, yogurt and cookie included. Ofelia, the desk clerk was friendly and helpful. I give her 5/5 stars. Almost missed the entrance since they were painting the building. TV not working properly. Some channels spoke Spanish even though English was the norm. I probably will not return to this motel

No housekeeping for the duration of my stay. I guess I would have to request it. It’s okay though because I only would have requested clean towels.
