Hotel had some construction in progress. However continued into the AM! Could hear heavy objects being moved around all night. Someone started hammering at 7am one morning. Bathroom didn't even have a toilet brush.Fridge was exceptionally noisy in the room. 2 days of something beeping in the hall ( low battery fire alm perhaps ). Did not get a good nights sleep entire stay. Won't be back.

We walked into a construction site. Stepped over tape, tools, and other trash to get to the elevator. Hallways smell like backed up sewage. Incredibly disappointing.

The manager upgraded us when the room was not elevator accessible. There was a fire alarm the first night at 1:30am where the fire department was called. We received no apology or anything from the management. Elevator still not working the day of checkout.

It's very disappointing to check-in and see the hotel is having renovations done. VERY NOISY during the day. We had pre-paid and tried to check out early to go to different hotel but we could not get refund. Will NOT be staying here again.

They say location, location, location and it’s true. Dining and shopping are easily walkable, which we have done for every night (8 days) except when going to Koreatown for some Korean BBQ. The motel is currently going through minor renovations as of 12/11/2024. Overall the motel is pleasing to the eye, cleanliness and decor. The breakfast was great (revolving hot items such as 2 omelettes(cheese, egg whites w veggie, or cheese and ham), 2 types of sausages(turkey or pork) or bacon. There are the usual cold cereal of 3 choices and fruits (banana and orange). Lots of danish pastries. Hot oatmeal. There is a mini-frig with various items (yogurt, hard boiled eggs, small water bottles, and maybe some other things). The only negative is the sound. It is close to the airport, so gets loud when planes take off or land. You can hear TV playing or people walking upstairs. I would stay here again.

Honestly pretty great hotel. It was quiet and clean, check in was really easy. The breakfast was well stocked and had a lot of options. My only complaint is that after getting off the elevator to my second floor room I still had to drag my suitcase up 12 stairs to get to my room.

Clean hotel but it seems they are going through repair phase. The space between the desk and the bed is so tiny that it's super hard to even sit on the chair. The fridge was so loud that I had to unplug because it woke me up at 5am. I thought they were doing road constructions

Stayed here on a week-long business trip. Room and bed were comfortable, but the wifi network was not up to expectation ... slow and difficult to stay connected. Reported on Monday and was still slow on Friday, so seems like more than just a router reset is needed.

I was wrongly charged for a smoking deposit. The hotel is charging me 300.00 for something that I did not do. The room has a smoke detectors, if I smoked the smoke detector would’ve went off.
