Friendly and welcoming check in. We were given breakfast vouchers for each day of our stay. Nice free pancake and egg breakfast served at the restaurant on site. The room was a bit small but very clean and comfortable with all the necessary amenities. I would give this place an A- based only on the weak water pressure in the shower.

Clean room, pretty spacious. Good for the price for sure. Traffic noise was pretty high being right off the main strip, and the neighbor noise was noticeable. But we'd stay here again!

The room was clean and looked like it had some updates. The toilet needs to be updated to a handicap height. The old toilet make you feel like your sitting on the floor. Otherwise, the bed was comfortable. Please add a sheer curtain in the window so the heavy curtains can be open and let light in. Will stay again.

There was only one girl working in the lobby when we checked in so the wait time was way too ling. The access to the rooms was terrible, you had to park in back to go to the room in the front. Also the showers were so bad that the sink water was harder than the shower water. Not an ideal stay at all, we stayed once and will not be back.
