This is my go to room when I traveling for business are leisure ! Never disappoints and very friendly nice staff and all rooms are very spacious and nice !
It was a nice elegant room and it was very clean & spacious even tho it seemed small. It was an excellent random choice with it being my first time staying in Downey area. Great customer service fast quick I would recommend it to family & friends 10/10
The rooms are small but very clean. The place was quite which we liked. The price was within range of where you are staying. Didn't care much for the required $50 cash deposit which is returned once they have key back and inspected the room. Be sure to hang your room sign on door for Maid Service or they don't come in the room.
