Modest, clean rooms.
The room was clean and nice. Updated not that long ago. The buildings were in need of repair and paint. The sidewalk was dirty. The staff was great, very polite, help. For the price we paid, we are not complaining.

I recently stayed at this hotel and had a very pleasant experience overall. The property is clean and well-maintained, and the staff are exceptionally friendly and accommodating. The location is also incredibly convenient, making it easy to access nearby attractions and transportation. The only downside was the noise from the main road, which could be a bit disruptive at times. However, it didn’t overshadow the positives of my stay. If you’re looking for a clean, well-located hotel with great service, this is an excellent choice. Just bring some earplugs if you’re sensitive to noise!

It was a motel and very close to freeway. Shame on us we didn’t check that on the website. There are some dubious characters living at the rear of the hotel and at one point saw a rather unpleasant looking girl walk from her room to the dumpster with a jacket and no panties! And it smelled awful in the area of their room. I think they may be permanent residents and probably down on their luck. We moved the car as it felt unsafe back there.
