    It appears a bit run down. The pool is near the entrance and it was drained of water. The TV remote worked inconsistently. In the morning, it took about 10 minutes for the water to flow warm in the shower.

    The place is a typical motel just off a highway, next to other motels and fast food and sit down restaurants. It was convenient to get to and next to a gas station. The are is quiet. The room was larger than expected with a big TV, a microwave oven, a refrigerator and a desk.

    Cons: non welcoming front desk lady. Squeaky bed, people having sex next door, load AC, She didnt say hello, she just angry rudely pointly to the side window. I gave my name for the reservation and she asked something. I said 3 times I can't hear her behind the glass. I finally just handed the obvious ID and credit card. She never smiled or even told me my room number or where it was located. I just drove for 14hrs and driving another 14hrs the next day. Its not the way I like to be treated as a guest. I won't stay there again and just rather stay in Mexicali where it's cheaper and far better hotels.

    Price, location Close to late night places to eat and not far from the border.

    Didn't get the room I reserved. First got a depressing room without a tub, then got an acceptable substitute. Property needs work, but overall an affordable decent value. The lady at the check in made up for any imperfections

    Nice beds, tub, and hot water. Free ice. Nice clerk lady.that found a room I liked

    Close to freeway, single floor. Plank flooring. Huge TV. Easy access. Parking area well lit, like a car lot. Many cameras.

    Office workers were rude and seemed to be a bit lazy. Did not appreciate the waits just to give payment for reservations.

    Close to gas stations and restaurants. The house keepers were nice and respectful. Thanks for that.

    I was pretty disappointed that the pool wasn't working. I imagine they said it somewhere, but I read that there was a pool and I was looking forward to it in the triple digit heat. Also although the bed was okay, the pillows were really squished down. I had just stayed at a Super 8 the night before in a different city, and for the essentially the same price the bed was much more comfortable. Then of course there are the problems that they can't control such as cold water that doesn't get cold because it is so hot outside.

    The location for the hotel was very convenient. It was also quiet. The shower was also good. I guess all in all it was a pretty much average room. They had tried to update a little bit but it was still clearly an old room.

    Be aware! There’s NO desk and NO chair in the room. The only place you can put your things on, is on top of the microwave or sink area. There are also no hangers for your clothes. The white duvet is dirty, because people sit on it or put things on it. Have never seen a hotel room before without a desk! At reception they said it was normal for this type of room. Huh? Also very small night stands with no lamps. You have to go out of bed to put off the main lightning. No towel rack at the sink and no luggage rack. There’s also no breakfast and no water in the pool.

    Mattress is alright. Updated bathroom.

    Air conditioner was very noisy and sounded like it could quit anytime. Toilet wasn’t secured good to floor! People were always slamming their doors to rooms and vehicles.

    Location was good.
