Breakfast is good. Parking is good. The only problem i had was the room next door was too loud. Couple was arguing and cussing all night and their baby crying. Hotel staff moved us when i asked to be moved to another room. Rooms are decent for the price u pay.

For a budget hotel this was actually pretty clean and impressive regarding the location especially since there’s a sprouts grocery store right across the street an awesome kebab place right across the street sushi bookstore dollar store CVS and In-N-Out a car wash pretty much anything and everything you would need. It’s a high traffic area and you’ll have to do a lot of U-turns if you drive but all in all it was budget friendly for what we needed. The breakfast was basically just waffles and cereal and some apple juice. The pool is nothing to write home about and you had a nice view of a dilapidated Caribbean restaurant that looks like it’s been through a hurricane, which could be a museum element. The beds were comfortable and clean the shower worked, and despite a little bit of a tricky check-in, the staff were on top of things.

The ground and surroundings need to be updated. There’s a big gap hole in the door. The room doesn’t feel clean. It’s not what we expected. It’s not the same as the pictures posted on the website.

Water could be hotter. Was lukewarm water in shower. No towels for pool. Never stayed at a hotel that didn't have linen available all hours. Had a time frame between 8am - 2pm to request linen, towels etc. Totally weird. Good luck if spill something and need linen at 7pm. Staff was friendly. Rooms need updating.
