Shabby, Rundown
Shabby hotel. I stayed here for 3 nights. The room had a smell. I shut off the AC and it was better. I asked for the filter to be changed which they did the next day. The curtains were not hung right so there was no way to keep them closed. I rigged up the ironing board to fill in where the curtain failed. There was a wet washcloth hanging on the shower curtain rail when I took my first shower. There was a dark brown stain on my pillow that looked like a small insect ground into the pillow. I don't know what it was but it was disgusting. They apparently don't clean the rooms unless you ask for it. I asked for them to do so but they did not. The place is run down and in serious need of renovation.

Sorry place to stay!
When I spend $150 on a room, I expect something! The dead bolt was missing, the windows had not locks, the rug was torn in such a way that I tripped going across the room. I did not feel safe at this motel.We ended up on the 3rd floor because that was all that was available but for someone who will have knee surgery, it was very difficult to climb 34 stairs as the elevator was out of order. And the TV only had 22 channels of which 12 were news! I would say it was not worth the money!

Freeway ramp feet away & Semi parking too
Excellent for families, dogs okay under 25 lbs I believe, that’s the weight limit. And I think they charge a fee. No elevator at present. 3 flights but they do accommodate. Very nice pool, & jacuzzi, workout room, business center and nice breakfast. I think above all the staff is 5 star definitely. Natasha and Jesse and Julio, at the front desk. Which is pretty much a full service concierge 😊 and housekeeping just sweetheart living dolls. Lots of travelers from Arizona, Nevada, Texas, New Mexico. Can’t say enough about the local. A great place to refresh from your travels and the road. I am a repeat customer and have always felt safe as a solo lady traveler. And always warmly welcomed

Do not recommend.
I could not stay, my room had a broken window. I left as soon as i got in the room. The carpet was dirty and sticky. The ac unit did not cool and the room smelled of mildew. I could not breathe. The room triggered bad allergies. The gentleman in the office was nice and kind. But my room was all the way on the third floor with no elevators and with a toddler, not safe. The furniture in the room was all beat up, i think it was chewed, perhaps by a dog, the fridge was rusted and falling apart at the bottom. I did not feel safe.

It’s a death trap. Stay away. Black mold on the carpet and in the bathroom. I’m going to contact the health department to get them to shut down the hotel. These conditions are prevalent through out the property. I’m attempting to engage legal help for injuries sustained since I’m highly allergic to black mold. I was told to contact Expedia since the property has authorized a refund and taken the room out of circulation. That’s ok but doesn’t help my lung issues because of black mold. Stay away if you value your health.
