This hotel is the filthiest rooms I ever saw in my life. I cannot believe they are allowed to even rent these rooms out. I refused to stay! They showed me another room same thing. They need to be reported to the health department. Thank goodness the Clarion hotel was right there and stayed there for a higher price. Staff was great. But unable to stay there. Disgusting!!!

Staff was great. Rooms are hot and the air barely keeps up. The floors even stayed hot (first floor). Places the flooring was lifting. The bed was good. Rooms need some work. The only view is the freeway. I just needed a place to crash while visiting. It was fine for that.

There’s definitely roaches, seen multiple in my room but they were squished. The breakfast is literally like waffles, toast, bagels cereal. Nothing crazy. The staff is super helpful though so that was a plus. Probably won’t stay here again

Avoid this hotel

Conditions are really bad! Do not stay here. The shower didn’t even work and have running water. You have to even check in at different hotel because lobby was closed. The pictures of hotel are not accurate either. Dirty shower.

Too expensive for what we got.

I had higher hopes for this one. Our room was missing the front of the oven door and the pullout couch was missing bolts and wouldn’t fold out at all. We had to pull the mattress off and sleep on the floor. There weren’t enough additional linens or towels to accommodate the number of guests.
