Air conditioner need replacement. Pet friendly very cool. Bed just a little uncomfortable but we managed. All in all it was a great stay. Thank you
The property is a well-maintained motel conveniently located near major freeways, making it easily accessible. It’s competitively priced and offers great value for the area—absolutely perfect for a relaxing and affordable staycation.
I didn't use the hot tub. The room was satisfactory.

I didnt even go in or park, I got 1 look and left because it felt unsafe and dodgy. Couldnt get a refund per the policy, but its my fault for not doing more research I suppose.
This hotel is really old, the parking is horrible there is a homeless issue. The rooms are old, no lamp on the side table. Toilet had a leaky noise sheets were dirty. I will not stay there again and do not recommend.
Pets welcomed a big plus
Room smelt clean w/sent of bleach
Check went smoothly
Only negative was having to disconnect the smoke detector due to beeping and no battery at front desk, or the next day
