The room is great for sleeping 5. There are 2 separate bedrooms and they each have a bathroom. Nice little kitchen, we used the toaster,their are dishes silverware, pots and pans,dish towel,pot holder,full size stove/oven. There is a table with 4 chairs. There is a couch with pull out bed.not comfortable, kids handled it,minor complaints, a coffee table ,window,gas fireplace. Then 2 doors that close and lock,with the bedrooms. The couch sleeper has to walk through one of the bedrooms to use a bathroom. Its a good deal for families or 2 separate couples. Paid about 220 and it was worth it.

Positive feedback- The check in experience was great. Front desk was friendly and quick. The pool and outdoor area was clean and nice. The bball half court was a nice amenity for our teenage boys. The glass rim was shattered but the hoop was still usable. Hotel was clean and the free breakfast is a plus with great options. Negative- Although the 2 bedroom suites are spacious with kitchens and 3 tvs ideal for families, the furniture is run down and old. The rooms can use some serious maintenance and upgrades. The furniture is ripped, stained, missing pieces and falling apart.

These rooms are beat up in the hotel has the ugliest old carpeting. There is no sidewalk around the property and they threaten if you smoke cigarettes or cigars to charge you a $250 fee for smoking legally outside. I don’t appreciate being treated like a child and I would’ve never smoked anywhere near the hotel but asking us to walk onto the freeway is actually insane. There is so much space around the property put a bench in an ashtray so people don’t sneak in fact when we pulled up to our door to walk in there were two people smoking directly next to the door. These rooms are a motel six at best. The beds are also pretty firm. I do not recommend this hotel to anybody. The guy that checked us in had filthy pants on also.
