It wasn't the most comfortable stay, but the rooms were clean and smelled fresh. To us, it was all that mattered for an inexpensive night's stay.

Disliked: Amenities
Just there overnight for a quick stay. Didn't get to use the pool or any amenities. Check in was easy and parking pass was helpful. Can't say much about the decor of the room could use a little help like the light shade was torn and wondered why the table tops were all scarred. Could be really easy to just put a piece of laminate on top. Very basic room very basic price can't complain about that. Look like they've updated the bathroom which was good. Could use a little work.
They were 10min late with our check in. Our neighbors had 2 noisy dogs. I will say when I called to bring that up they had security come. Employees were nice. But the hotel is dingy.

Simple and easy enough to find, staff were friendly and the area the hotel is located have a lot of different restaurants and dining options
Great location, but it had cockroaches in the room. First time I ever saw them and have been coming to this hotel multiple times.but the property is clean.
The first night of our stay a bum or a rockhead came to the door at 2:30am, no trash cans in the room,towels were small. Both hotel clerks were friendly .
There were a lot of negative reviews that made me concerned about my booking but I got there and was pleasantly surprised to find how clean and comfortable the room was. Definitely a hidden gem.
Pet friendly. Should not be charging a resort fee. Thin, thin, thin walls and loud guests. Friendly front staff. No daily housekeeping, coffee machine or hair dryer. No bugs but interior falling apart - sheets and towels were clean though. Disappointed by how much I paid.
We had quiet /cozy stay. I love they had alot of channels I watch. A quick check-in and out* the gentleman in lobby was nice. I always go to Iris when I'm in SD.
Check-in was quick and I had a 2 night stay. Bed was comfy with big screen tv and watched tubi. Not all rooms have that option but it was coo for me* it was a quiet stay overall.
This hotel is very outdated, needs some major upgrades, the room was clean for the most part, staff was nice when checking in. But did not feel safe as there was odd looking people around the hotel just hanging around, someone was also playing music in one of the rooms next to us all night, people talking right outside our room at night. We almost left to go stay somewhere else where we’d feel safer. Overall, please pay a little bit more and stay somewhere else!
Carpet was very stained. Sheets had holes. Beds 3 of 10. Water pressure was little to none.Guy at counter was the only positive. Very friendly and efficient.
