Good Location

Reasonable hotel at the budget end of the price range, plenty of places to eat nearby. would use again
Paul, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Room was clean and air conditioning worked great! The bed was very comfortable.The water pressure was horrible. There wasn't much to choose from on the breakfast side. The hotel was in an area that had restaurants and shopping. It was a good stay for the most part.

Close accommodations

Average accommodations, basics clean room, the TV did not work the last night but I think due to weather. Basic breakfast, not anything extra special. Safe and clean. I would stay again. Close to everything. Main strip. Can walk if needed.

Was given keys to an occupied room. Walked in on somebody sleeping. They gave us a new room but we were pretty sketched out after that. Breakfast was lacking. Would not recommend.

6/10 Good

So-so stay. A place to sleep.

For the most part, it clean and comfortable. Regarding the free breakfast… for a 7 day stay, I found it available 3 days. Two days with no coffee. Even in the room when they cleaned it it was not restocked with coffee. Located nicely near a Perkins and McDonald’s, Target all with in walking distance.

Don’t judge a book by its cover

The outside of the building could use a refresh but the rooms were newly remodeled and clean. The staff was very nice and helpful.
