Very nice, room was clean and had a safe in the closet, updated bathroom. It has 2 showers heads and a nice glass door on the shower. Room was set off to the side in a secluded corner which was very nice. Nice patio by the front door. The only issue was the front desk man has less the adequate customer service skills. Enjoyable stay, just need to work on how to treat customers.

Furnishings not in top condition by any means, but the room was serviceable for a 1-day stay. Parking is easy and the area is quiet.

First off, the property is tucked alongside the freeway and then located at the end of a road. I use to live in the area from the 70's - 90's, and the locations appearance has not changed. The property is OLD, so know that first and foremost. The grounds interior roads needs to be repaved. Litter on grounds areas. Very small refrigerator, with no shelves. Our rooms floor was dirty and sticky. It also had a make-shift patch in a few areas. The bed frame did not fit the mattress, a ankle Hazzard, especially at 4 am when you have to use the restroom. The staff was very helpful. The free continental breakfast was nice. The fire pits are nice. The pool and hot tub were closed for maintenance. There is only one washer and dryer for use. The price for a stay range from $80-$110.00 per night. We also stayed across the street at the Marriott, the night before and you SEE the difference in what you pay for ($175.00) per night. With all that said, I'd probably stay here again, for the cost and proximity for our destinations, just DON'T get EXCITED by the pictures, they'll fool you.

Would not give me a room.
Need a refund. Got there and they told me Internet was down and they could not give me a room or recommend another hotel. It was 9pm. Ended up searching for another hotel and paying 30$ more.
