Very good

Clean, quiet, helpful. The WiFi could be better but I think it was just location. 9 out of 10!

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Hair was on my towels in the bathroom which were nicely folded. Hair was also on the pillows. Had issues with the toilet then it eventually flooded the bedroom. Informed management, she told she had no other rooms and could not give me a refund for 1 night. It was booked 3rd party. I assumed she wanted me and my 3 kids to stay on the streets. No resolution.
This hotel does not have a daily room cleaning service which besides being weird is disgusting and unsafe. Somehow when I booked the hotel I missed this important detail otherwise I would never came near this type if hotel. Shame on you chain and you bizzarre and messed up policy
Check in was a bit rough because the lady checking us in confused our rooms - but we LOVED the full kitchen and the fact that it’s right across from a Costco. We love how big our room was and the convenience of it.
Great location. Easy access to freeway and shopping. Sometimes took multiple requests to replenish supplies during a 5 week stay and did not have any pots or pans in the room. Overall, would stay again.
If you want rude condescending customer service, this is the place to go.
When you get in an accident and message the hotel, they’ll tell you should have called instead of tending to your accident because message doesn’t work. What’s the point of a messaging system then when no one answers calls either. Then they use the same messaging system the next day to let you know that it’s too bad it is too late.
Look elsewhere there are other venues near this area that will treat you better.
