Many guests like the proximity to the light rail and grocery stores. Some rooms have upgrades like walk-in showers and kitchenettes, while others feel very dated and a few mention noise or loud AC. Expect a basic, no frills motel where the experience can vary by room.

We had a mix up at first as my Expedia credit didn’t show on the motels side so I was booked into a room completely different than I expected. As soon as my boyfriend arrived we went to the office and spoke to the front desk clerk Mike. He was able to switch us to the correct room immediately. That room was just like the pictures; very clean and cozy. The bed was comfortable and the water pressure was amazing!! Absolutely loved the waterfall shower head, for that alone we’ll return lol.

We were fortunate to get one of the recently upgraded rooms (currently four) with tile flooring and a fantastic new walk-in shower. Our stay was short (one-day conference) but we could still appreciate the full fridge, microwave, and oven-stove in the kitchenette. There was a large food-store (Fry’s) across the street. Great place for a longer stay and access to Fry’s for anything you forgot to bring.

Didn’t expect much for the price but the rating is too high. Pretty sure the comforters had not been washed in some time. Gas range did not work and was pretty dirty. We just stayed the night, only there for about 11 hrs so it served its purpose.

After reading the negative reviews, I decided to try this location as the reviews were years old. the room was clean, there was a refrigerator, microwave and TV with Cable. Bed was ok. the AC/Heater was easy to use. water was very hot on demand (I need a hot water soak anyways). its was a simple space, clean and basic.

The front desk staff and check in was simple and friendly. The room was more than adequate. My basic needs for being close to the rail stop, a store, and convenience for basic need located nearby. The room was very dated and worn. The bed linen was “mostly” clean, but I doubt I was the first one to sleep in the bed since the sheets were washed. The cleanliness, if I could call it that, was on par with staying at a college friends place for the night. For example, the mismatch bath towels that were so stained that I wasn’t sure if it had been used to clean an auto engine first. It “smelled” clean though. The floor and dresser top were sticky. The tub had a drain visibly clogged with someone’s hair. So when I closed my eyes and went to sleep, I was fine. But it was not the model of cleanliness, but didn’t feel unhygienic so much. It’s just been a while since I found hesitations about a hotel/motel.

The room was poorly cleaned. I was about to just look for another place. The bed had saliva stains (I hope it was saliva). The toilet didn’t flush the first time, 4-5 retries were needed. Also the bathroom was full of disgusting yellow spots almost everywhere. Regardless of the room being smoking free, there were ashes in the floors. It was hard to communicate with the front desk, they don’t speak english or spanish.

Motel and room did not match the pictures or reviews I first saw. Then I found bed bugs. The manager wasn’t concerned or surprised when I said this. Offered me another room, which I quickly declined. Owner refused my refund because they could have put me in another room. Also, the people that were walking around the property, hanging out with staff, were less than desirable. Definitely didn’t feel safe.

Expedia, not sure why you have this on your platform with Good rating! I got my parents here for an old stay and found hair inside the sheets everywhere. There were cigarette butt holes on the sheets and beds. Leftover food particles or a tooth? Good only knows , inside the sheets. The flush doesn’t work? lol it was super inconvenient with poop floating throughout your stay inside the commode. They turn off WiFi after sometime? Can’t locate it and they don’t give WiFi info explicitly. Smells bad, torn towels, no charging outlets, missing tv remote, no toiletries! Avoid it like the plague!! Sucks!! Lost my money!

I couldn’t even communicate with the owners because their English was so bad so when I tried to call to call to let them know I needed to put down my friends name down to check in, they couldn’t understand me. Then when I got there to check in(after my friend waited almost an hour for me) they told me I booked a room with only one bed and continuously told me I needed to pay an extra 40 dollars. I showed them my app where it clearly stated 2 queen beds. We argued for 20 minutes before he finally rudely grabbed our room key. When we got to the room it was riddled with hair from previous tenants, bugs, and stunk like cigarette smoke. The owners English was so bad I couldn’t even communicate well enough to get a refund so we reluctantly stayed and were woken up at 8 in the morning being told to check out. DO NOT STAY HERE.

I booked a double bed room. Staff wouldn’t give me a two bed bedroom. One of us slept on the floor. Everything smells horrible (smoke). After showering we dried ourselves with our own clothes since all towels had horrible stains on them. HORRIBLE experience.

For example, the mismatch bath towels that were so stained that I wasn’t sure if it had been used to clean an auto engine first. It “smelled” clean though. The floor and dresser top were sticky. The tub had a drain visibly clogged with someone’s hair. So when I closed my eyes and went to sleep, I was fine. But it was not the model of cleanliness, but didn’t feel unhygienic so much. It’s just been a while since I found hesitations about a hotel/motel.
The front desk staff and check in was simple and friendly. The room was more than adequate. My basic needs for being close to the rail stop, a store, and convenience for basic need located nearby. The room was very dated and worn. The bed linen was “mostly” clean, but I doubt I was the first one to sleep in the bed since the sheets were washed. The cleanliness, if I could call it that, was on par with staying at a college friends place for the night.

The room was very clean. The manager at the front desk was very accommodating in helping us figure out how to get the TV working . It was in a convenient location for us, and affordable, especially since this was high season for visitors. No frills, but none expected.

Light Rail access and grocer across the street are the best parts here.

The towels were so dirty lucky we brought our own, the outside looks great the inside of the rooms are old and used. The refrigerator smelled like something died in it The stove was dirty and the tables all needed to be dusted the internet was slow, the ac was not cold at all. I really wish they had clean towels, they need to care about the side of the rooms now
