I have stayed here because of the convenience and the staff nice enough; however, I've this place is right off the freeway and old walking path and is full of homeless, there were at least 4 homeless with all their belongs around the property and as someone who was traveled with dogs I didn't feel safe. Homeless are also using the charging facilities around the property to charge their phones and the property owners don't seem to be too concerned.

The room was decent clean. I love animals, However, there were a lot of people coming in and out of their rooms with dogs and cats (lots). People were screaming and yelling in the middle of the night. We had to wake up super early and couldn't sleep due to the noise and people yelling even though it was during the week! Felt unsafe too!

Pretty good
Nice and small motel tucked away behind a Korean all you can eat buffet. There are also several other restaurants nearby, such as Aladdin or Ma's House. Havana Grill is one of the few Cuban restaurants. Pets are welcome, unlike at Pleasant Inn next door or California Suites. There are some strange characters but keep in mind this is one of the most central locations to the entire city, and near businesses as well as excellent Asian food.

The property needs a remodel. Everything was a little old/used. The room smelled musty. Other than that, it was just average and ok for a 1 night stay. The price was cheap!

Not what I expected.
Not sure if mgr is at fault. However, the room was located in a sketchy part. Which was made worse with homeless shopping g carts literally right I front of the room. And homeless persons laying underneath access stairs. Quite uncomfortable moments while walking to the room. The night I stayed, a lot of loitering on the property. Not sure if they were guests.

The telephone was very dirty, grafitti on the side of the air conditioner. There was not remote control on the room to watch TV. We could not sleep. People were fighting and screaming outside. Outside of the room there were blankets on the floor. It looked like a homeless encampment.

While the room is obviously newly renovated and clean, it smelled like cigarettes in there. Outside the units are bunch of personal items from the other unit that seems to be from people who are checked in for a longer stay or like they actually live there. By the parking lot, there are homeless people camping out by the dumpster in their cars and RV. They wouldn’t bother you and I wasn’t really bothered but just wanting to let other people know so they don’t get surprised when they come to stay in this property. Would I stay here again? I sure will but it wouldn’t be my first choice.

So disappointing
It is sad to see that companies can still be open in such poor conditions. The penetrated smell of cigarettes and filth was so disappointing. I know not to expect much from a budget place but this place is just a example of a slum lord ownership.
