Not staying there again
Front desk was courteous. Rooms looked ok, but on closer look it was not very clean. Floor was very sticky. Some hairs in the bathtub. Looking out back window saw a homeless camp. Worried about parking in parking lot because of people walking around. Lots of people living in the hotel.

Not for families! Not returning!
Upon arrival we noticed obvious drug activity in the parking lot. We went To our room only to find the sheets were streaked and stained! Hair was also found in the bed. We went down to the front desk to request another room. After being shown a second room and that room was dirty as well, we did not stay! I told the lady at the front desk that the pictures and descriptions online were NOT what the hotel rooms looked like, she said she knew they weren’t correct but were close! They were nothing close to as picture on hotels.com

The property was dirty. The room was dirty with mold and mildew above the shower due to the shower head leaking spraying water on the ceiling. The refrigerator was dirty with spilt food over it. Lastly the room was beyond hot due to the blinds being open with the ac off on a 107 degree day.

Worst stay ever
This was one of the worst stay of my entire life. As Soon as you enter the building, it smells smoke and I asked manager if the room is smoke free, he said yes, but I did smell obvious smoke inside in the room as well. There’s no shampoo, and they don’t provide it in the middle of the night and fight between a couple began, and it took almost an hour. The manager didn’t even call the police. We have kids sleeping and they will wake up in the middle of the night and will all be in further discomfort. AC was making a disturbing noise such as dripping, and it continued all night, even if I removed the power cable. I don’t feel welcomed no comfort and no conditions.

It is not as advertised. I have never stayed at a one star hotel but if there was ever one that deserved that rating it would be this one. Dirty, sheets didn't appear to have been changed, shower did not work, tv spotty, very loud freeway traffic. Stay here if you are on an extreme budget and desperate.
