OK, but some outside maint issues
Overall OK stay. Hot water took 5 min to get hot, but then was very hot. Ice machine broken, seemed like a long time, so get it fixed. Could be an issue with local homeless raiding the machine. Also pop machine also out of order, so get it fixed.

There was lubricant on the bed sheets. The bed was slippery and the thought of how lubricant managed to get on the bed sheets disgusted me.

5/ 5 stars.
The only real complaint I have is that the wifi is a bit shaky here and there, due to the construction and thickness of the walls, which is a great thing. Other than that, the room was quiet, clean, and comfortable. I'd highly recommend this place, especially at the price point. Thanks you to the staff and management.

I can appreciate this place because it’s one of the lesser costing motels around… you pay for what you get right?… I like how I can just park my car right in front of my door and I can hear and see my ride most places you can’t do that due to parking structure

I liked that it was close to our venue and inexpensive. I didn’t like that she (the front desk girl ) appeared to not have our reservation.

It’s a decent place for what you pay…. It’s near the 99 north or south…. Gym is close by and taco stands ….if anything the cable can be updated and a tv or two …. Overall it’s good I like that I can bring a dog along especially a pitbull… and I can park my car right near my window so that I can be very watchful of my property

Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Amenities
The property looked line a magnet for lowlifes and drug users, general area looked run down. The "non smoking" room smelled of cigarettes. Other guests were also smoking rigjt out side the rooms in the hallway which just it worse with cigarette smoke. Front desk was terrible had to stand there and wait because the button to call for the attendant wasnt even working over all bad experience

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
It reminded me of my deployment time in Iraq. Run down building,rat infested property. Im surprised they are passing inspection. I would much rather save that 💲💲and sleep at the park. Rooms were out dated and filthy..Sheets looked used up,bed looked re-made without changing to cleaner sheets/cover. I paid for a room i didnt feel comfortable staying the night in…Lesson learned,never will stay here ever again…
