Really good. Front desk was good. Room was nice. Bathroom was clean. Pool and jacuzzi looked clean. Neighbors were a little crazy but that’s not the hotels fault. Overall good stay.

Disliked: Amenities
Easy check in. Hotel is right off the freeway. The rooms are very basic and nothing flashy. You get exactly what you pay for. My only complaint is that the bathrooms are a little outdated and the water pressure in the showers are nonexistent. If you’re going up the road, I need a place to stay that’s affordable and easily accessible, this is your place.
