The outside is a bit sketchy but the room itself was decent. Didn’t have any issues with bed bugs or roaches as other people have complained about. I was there for 4 nights and no complaints.

The hotel stay itself was fine and convenient to the University. Did not appreciate a concert going on in the parking garage across from the hotel - but I know that wasn't the hotels doing. Just a bit frustrating -

A decent room for a decent price. This property is actually 2 hotels in one U-shaped building (Howard Johnson and Travelodge) and they share a parking lot. The room was clean and had a lightly mod aesthetic. The shower had good water pressure and temperature. The free breakfast in the front office wasn't a huge spread but hey, it's free!

You get what you pay for, convenient location. If you arrive late, there's no parking left. The building is exposed in the center, extremely loud. It sounded like the third circle of hell! Bring your earplugs.

Very convenient location in downtown Reno. It was walking distance to everything I needed. The staff were very helpful. The telephones in the room do not work. I was only trying to use the phone to call the front desk to get the wifi password which was not given at check-in. Clean and soundproof facility.

Took over an hour to check in 3 people ahead. Tried calling the property to extend reservation, told they were having phone problems but nobody followed up. Told deposit would be available immediately at check out then at check out, told 3-5 business days. The gal checking out was way more helpful than checkin in

When we got there it took an hour to get to the front desk to get checked. The lady helping us out did not great us just took May ID and Credit card. Did not say anything about the wait.Bedroom door did not work properly and was hard to open. The property said that the was complementary breakfast and all it was is granola bars and stuff like that and juice, coffee. The property was ok nothing special and rooms were ok. I personally would not stay here again .
