Liked: Staff & service
This was a business trip so the lodging was not incredibly important. This location was about what you'd expect if you are not planning to be in the room very often. It's moderately run down, the water pressure is terrible (this may be a California thing), the microwave in our room was broken, and those staying there were somewhat sketchy. The staff was adequate and nice. I personally won't stay there again.

My room was cleaned every day (requested). The staff (from the front desk to the cleaning/maintenance personal) were very courteous and helpful, even when I asked a lot of questions. Like when I said I didn't get the Wifi pw...it was right on the key card cover! Breakfast was delicious every day (stayed for 6 days). They varied the egg breakfast choices every couple of days. Make your own waffles were good too. Didn't get to use the hot tub or pool, which were very clean. I was too busy taking day trips. I will be a repeat customer!

The young lady who registered me was very nice and polite. The cleaning staff were very friendly and attentive. For breakfast there are instructions on how to get the batter in a cup and pour it into the waffle machine, however there aren’t instructions on what to do once you pour the batter into the waffle machine. They could put some instructions about the machine and make it easier. The room was clean and well kept. We were in room 121 and the handle on the toilet needs to be repaired. Yes,we would stay there again.

The hotel was outdated and dirty. Sticky floors, stained bedding and multiple places smelled like urine. The staff did the best they could to help, but the whole place needs a major renovation. At least the staff was nice though.

Staff was nice, rooms were pretty clean. Beds were pretty decent. A couple hairs left on the bathroom floor and shower curtain. Parking was good. Breakfast underwhelmed. Toast, tiny muffins, cereal, eggs weren't good, sausage wasnt very good. There was batter mix for waffles but we just walked to the donut shop right next door.
