2/10 Poor

Looks nice… but….
1st room had a lot of hair in the bathroom area, and a drain in the tub that was REALLY SLOW. a short shower and water was 3” deep. 2nd room had a hole in the wall and door did not lock. 3rd room smelled like a musty barn. We left and got a refund. The mgr tried but admitted he could do any better.

Enjoyable Stay
The room was clean and nice and big! The bathroom had a bard door that did not close all the way or lock which was uncomfortable with friends coming into our room. That was the only drawback. Bed was comfortable and the noise from the freeway was surprisingly quieter than expected.

Besides basically being across from the freeway with traffic noise and some very loud, partying going on outside our room the first night... it was fine.

4/10 Fair

Don’t Stay For More Than A Night
It wasn’t the worst but not great at all. The room was only cleaned once in our 4 night stay. There was tile that was loose in the bathroom and we had to ask the maid that was outside to let us borrow a broom because the floor was dirty and dusty. It was really dirty. If you’re just sleeping there maybe think about it. Then in our last day there some repair guys were knocking and trying to open our room. I went to the door and they said they might have gotten the wrong room and asked if I was checking out today.
