From someone who is alway looking for the best within a budget and ALWAYS doing my research here is my honest upfront review. I did find some bad reviews for this place but also some great ones, so I decided to give it a chance. We had a wonderful stay over all, I got a standard 2 queen with a sofa bed, the room was surprisingly very big and spacious which I was very happy about because most hotels aren’t like that nor many hotels offer a sofa bed nowadays, which was very beneficial. The hotel itself was nice and the room was very clean. The two employees at the desk were also very kind and accommodating with any situation that I brought to them, as well as the cleaning staff. Breakfast was included and is on the fourth floor, which I thought was a bit strange, but that is beside the point. Breakfast included cereal, yogurt, granola, muffins, apples, oranges, pancakes(one day), waffles(the next), scrambled eggs, toast, coffee, and a variety of juices. All in all, I will rate it a 9/10 and my only reason for that is because of the windows in the hotel aren’t fully sealed so they kind of sound like the window is open and unfortunately, we were on the side where the freeway was so it was a little bit loud, but not terrible we were still able to get rest. And secondly, parking was an additional $20 a day on property which was limited if you didn’t get there early. BUT there is parking on the street but because it was Comic-con weekend it made that impossible to do.

Unfriendly staff. The check in time was a 5 min wait with no "I'll be right with you" or apologies. The rooms smells of old bedding and outdated carpet. Just a very uneasy place to stay.

Great value! Good breakfast offered. Paid parking. Clean. Fluffy towels. Blackout curtains. In-room coffee/tea. Fromt desk did not offer early check-in, which would have been greatly appreciated due to a long drive and no sleep from working the night before. Quick drive to the trolley station. Will definitely return. Thank you!
