Room service is so horrible. You can request service multiple times. We called everyday to get room service and only got one time. And then when they did finally come that one time they made us put the sheets on the bed. Like I came back from work and there was just new sheets sitting there folded up and the sheets were off my bed. No one was there during the day to hinder them from doing there job. I stayed for 2 weeks paid $1800 up front to get disrespected and no room service. Hope you guys do better for the people who stay there because it is really ridiculous that you can’t do a simple job

It’s a motel 6

Nothing great other than the location. Right next to Costco and Legoland. Tons of restaurants nearby. Surprisingly the pool was clean and a small family actually swam in it when we were there. It was inconvenient to borrow the hairdryer by swapping your ID at the front desk. We only borrowed one time not worth borrowing again. Walls were thin, loud running water from other side and people talking out front late in the evening. Would stay again because the location is just that good.

Used gum stuck on the toilet seat, tubs with peeling and broken non-slip mats. Booked a non smoking room that smelled like smoke and had cigarette burn holes on the bedding.

Black mold in the front door. The smell was terrible due to the mold. The bed was filled with hair. The bed sheet covers had burns from cigarette. Please book in advance to another hotel.
