    The Negatives: • The remodeling seemed poorly done. Much of the furniture appeared secondhand and showed wear such as scratches, cuts, and water damage. Some fixtures, like the wine holder, weren’t functional. • Paintwork was uneven, several lightbulbs were missing, and the A/C unit had a box propped underneath it, which was unusual. • Even with daily housekeeping, surfaces and handles didn’t always feel completely wiped down. • The property had some questionable guests lingering around, which gave off uncomfortable “tweaker” vibes, though we were not directly bothered.

    The Positives: • We loved the large, lighted mirror beside the bed — such a nice touch. • The location was excellent: right off the freeway, close to downtown, and next literally any store you might need and food. • The property is non-smoking, but patios are equipped with chairs if you’d like to smoke outside. • Housekeeping is provided daily with no minimum-night stay, which is rare and very appreciated. The housekeepers were kind, attentive, and absolutely deserve tips for their great service. • The pool was a highlight — 9 feet deep, warm even in the evening, and complemented by a spacious jacuzzi and a lit waterfall feature that made for a scenic, relaxing view. • We enjoyed the variety of TV channels available. • The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. When our first room gave us a bad impression (smoke odor, tissue stuffed in door holes, and worn furniture), the front desk clerk immediately moved us to a much cleaner, more comfortable room. • We also noticed staff consistently checking the pool and spa area to restock towels, which showed a good level of attentiveness.

    The pillows need to be respected. They seemed either very old or cheap. They were extremely uncomfortable.

    Room seemed nice and clean.

    It's nothing fancy, but the price for one night (4th of July) was high. Also, they charge more for an ADA room which seems hinky and contrary to the spirit of the ADA if not technically against the rules.

    It was a place to rest and shower. Both the bed and shower were fine.

    The resturant next door was closed and the posting didn't reflect this. I was able to doordash.

    I think that this was a great value. Although it was an older property the room was large, clean and comfortable. The prior reviews had me worried but, I was very pleased and would stay again.
